Ingredients:
– Nori sheets
– Sushi rice
– Various fillings of your choice (e.g. raw salmon, avocado, cucumber, crab sticks, tempura shrimp, etc.)
– Soy sauce
– Wasabi
– Pickled ginger
Instructions:
1. Cook the sushi rice according to the package instructions.
2. While the rice is cooking, prepare the fillings. Cut the ingredients into small strips, making sure they are roughly the same size.
3. Once the rice is cooked, mix in a tablespoon of rice vinegar and salt to taste.
4. Take a nori sheet and cut it into quarters.
5. Moisten your hands with water to prevent the rice from sticking to your fingers. Take a small ball of rice and shape it into a triangle with your fingers.
6. Place the triangle of rice on one of the nori quarters, leaving a small gap at the bottom.
7. Add your choice of fillings to the rice triangle.
8. Use your fingers to roll the nori into a cone shape, ensuring the fillings are fully enclosed.
9. Repeat steps 5-8 until you have made enough temaki sushi for your guests.
10. Serve the temaki sushi with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger.
Tips:
– Don’t overstuff the cone with fillings, as it will make it difficult to roll.
– Make sure your nori sheets are fresh and not brittle, as this will make them easier to roll.
– Experiment with different fillings and combinations to find your favorite flavors.
– If you don’t have sushi rice, regular short-grain white rice can also work.
– Have a damp cloth nearby to clean your hands between making each roll.
