Ingredients

• 1 cup Sushi rice
• 1.25 cups Water
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 4 sheets Nori sheets
• 8 ounces Fresh salmon, sliced into thin strips
• 1 large Ripe avocado, sliced
• 1 medium Cucumber, julienned
• 0 Soy sauce (optional for serving)
• 0 Pickled ginger (optional for serving)
• 0 Wasabi (optional for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rinsed rice and 1.25 cups of water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2

Once the rice is cooked, let it cool slightly but is still warm. In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until the sugar dissolves. Gently fold this mixture into the warm rice using a wooden spatula.

Step 3

Place a bamboo sushi mat on a flat surface and put a nori sheet, shiny side down, on the mat. Wet your fingers with water to prevent sticking and evenly spread about 1/4 of the sushi rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border along the top edge.

Step 4

Arrange a few strips of salmon, avocado slices, and cucumber along the edge of the rice closest to you.

Step 5

Lift the edge of the bamboo mat closest to you and begin to roll the sushi away from you, applying gentle but firm pressure to keep the roll tight and even. Continue rolling until the free edge of the nori is sealed.

Step 6

Use a sharp knife to cut the sushi roll into 6-8 equal pieces, wiping the knife with a damp cloth between cuts to ensure clean slices.

Step 7

Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to make additional rolls.

Step 8

Serve the sushi rolls with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi, if desired.
