Boil the sushi-rice in a heavy round-bottom pot. For each measure of sushi-rice, take about 15% more water, for example, for 3 pints of rice use 3½ pints of water.
Wash the rice once, then place into the pot and add cold water. Place the pot onto the lowest possible gas-burner temperature, and cook under closed lid. Stir occasionally each 5-10 min. Boil until all water will have disappeared. This depends on the quantity of the rice and the temperature used, so be sure to check the rice frequently.
Ingredients. ¾ pints of sushi-rice will be well enough for two people.
Prepare sweet and salty vinegar for sushi rice. For each 3 measures of rice use ½ measure of rice vinegar, ¼ measure of sugar and a reasonable amount of salt. Let's say use ½ tsp of salt for each ½ kg of sushi-rice. Stir this mixture occasionally during the rice boiling procedure until all sugar dissolves. If you feel that the sugar will not dissolve in-time, you can warm up your vinegar mixture a bit before adding it to the rice.
Add the mixture of vinegar with sugar and salt into the rice.
Gently stir it once again. Cover with the lid and you can now use this rice for further cooking. We hope that this simple instruction of How to make sushi rice will helps you to cook perfect sushi rice without any problems!
