Preparation

It washes the rice in a bowl, changing the water up to 6 times, until leaving it clear. So remove excess starch.

It is cooked the 500 gr. of rice in 750 cc. water in a well covered pot, for 15 minutes, starting from the moment that we will hear start boiling. Let stand aside, for another 15 minutes. It is essential to not open the pot at any time during the cooking and resting.

While it rests the rice, we heat a little vinegar with sugar and salt, stirring until mixing well. Let cool and reserve.

Once ready rice, already cooled, cut fish and vegetables in thin and elongated strips. Extends the rice thin layer on the seaweed nori on a mat or clean cloth, leaving a border of 1 cm. free. Place the fish and vegetables near one end, and rolled up helping you the mat. Closes the sushi sealing the end with a little water. Cover with cling film and let stand cold a while, so join the ingredients well.

At the time of serving, short the roll with the help of a well sharpened knife, soaking it in water and well cleaned with a cloth or paper towels from court to court. The thickness is variable, it should ideally be 1 cm or 1.5 cm. maximum.

It serves a source with a nut of wasabi, soy sauce and Ginger preserved. To eat it mixes a hint of wasabi in soy sauce, wetting each roll in this sauce. After eating it we took a bit of ginger.

Ah! Careful with wasabi, is an excerpt from extremely Japanese horseradish, non comes to mind eating directly. I've seen do this and is very badly, I I can assure you.

The ingredients are easy to find in large supermarkets and shops of Asian products. The fish is best to use it frozen to prevent infection by anisakis spp., and supports many combinations, such as prawns, salmon, tuna, etc.

Ideal soy sauce is the Japanese, something softer and less salty than china. If not we find we can use any other. The truth is that it requires some skill, but with a little patience can achieve very good results and surprise family and friends with this light and healthy Japanese, ideal dish for an informal meeting.
