My mother and I made homemade sushi last night. This has been something that I have always wanted to do, but never been able to do successfully because of the rice issue. It is so darn hard to create perfect sticky rice. Well, now that issue has been solved. Perfect sticky rice is right at our fingertips in a minute and thirty seconds. And it's brown rice to boot. I found this product in the grocery store recently right over near all of the other instant rice products. It has two ingredients: brown rice and water. No preservatives and other junk. And it works perfectly for homemade sushi.
You will need Nishiki instant brown rice, seaweed wrappers, cucumber slices, avocado slices, grated wasabi, mayo, and soy sauce.
Cook the rice according to the directions. Spread a thin layer of the rice along one half of the seaweed sheet. Top with thinly sliced cucumber and avocado in long strips. Top with a mixture of mayo and wasabi. Brush a little extra of this mixture on the top of the sheet to seal the roll. Then roll it up!
I know this is not the best photo, but here you have it. Really delicious sushi right at home!
