Craft Perfect Sushi with This Essential Sushi Mold

Ingredients

• 1 cup Sushi Rice (cooked, seasoned with rice vinegar, sugar and salt)
• 2 pieces Nori Sheets (seaweed paper for rolling)
• 1/2 cup Cucumber (julienned into thin strips)
• 1/2 piece Avocado (sliced thinly)
• 1/4 cup Carrot (peeled and cut into matchsticks)
• 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce (for dipping)

Instructions

1. Prepare Sushi Rice

   Rinse 1 cup sushi rice until water runs clear, cook according to package directions, then season with rice vinegar, sugar and salt while still warm.

   Time: PT10M

2. Lay Out Nori and Rice

   Place a sheet of nori shiny‑side down on the sushi rolling mat. Wet your hands and spread an even layer of rice over the nori, leaving a 1‑inch border at the top edge.

   Time: PT3M

3. Add Vegetarian Fillings

   Arrange cucumber strips, avocado slices, and carrot matchsticks in a line across the center of the rice.

   Time: PT2M

4. Roll the Sushi

   Using the mat, lift the edge of the nori closest to you and begin to roll forward, applying gentle pressure. When you reach the end, give the roll a slight twist to seal the border, then push down firmly.

   Time: PT3M

5. Slice the Roll

   Using a sharp, wet knife, cut the roll into 6‑8 bite‑size pieces.

   Time: PT2M

6. Serve

   Arrange the sushi pieces on a plate and serve with soy sauce for dipping.
