Keep Hole Alive

Hmm made these a few days ago, but since I haven't made sushi in over 5 years I kinda fricked up eyeballing the rice amounts. Soy sauce, wasabi & ginger not pictured. But it's my only food pic I currently have and the hole is close to dying. So yeah... suck it!

Is rolling your own decently easy?

Dead simple

If u cant find sushi rice, or dont wanna pay markup u can use 1 : 3 glutinous to white rice ratio.

Get a bamboo roller off amazon or ur local asian store. Lots of guides on how to do it, the one i read told me to put saran wrap btwn the roller and nori but it's a waste of plastic and pointless

It's super easy. Personally I don't even use a sushi mat, cause I'm lazy as frick. You can see that, because my "rolls" are not really circular but more ellipse shaped.

Honestly rolling is easier than cutting, cause I have to clean the knife of the sticky rice after cutting 2 pieces.

Nice!

My fav homemade sushi have got to be veggie rolls with lettuce, carrot, cucumber and spicy mayo

How much effort do you put into the rice? Normal rice + rice vinegar or real sushi rice

I use sushi rice with rice vinegar and a bit of sugar. When I started out I also used mirin instead of the sugar, but I don't think it's worth it.

But you can use any slightly sticky rice.

Only thing that is important imho is that you use a decent Japanese soy sauce for dipping. I also have a light (Chinese?) soy sauce for other cooking, and it's quite the difference.

I want to bully you, but that's probably the only way I'd consistently make sushi too
