Sushi

Just a quick tutorial on how I make sushi at home.  It's really good and inexpensive.  Enjoy!


I really like to use avocado, cucumber, crab meat [i just buy the seafood snackers or imitation crab leg at the fish section of the store] cream cheese and rice.  But you can use whatever you prefer!


The microwaveable sticky rice works really good for us.  I have made it with and without the seasoned rice vinegar but I prefer to use it


This is just a regular cucumber but you can use the English style cucumber if you prefer


The avocado I had for the demonstration was too ripe!  So I just left it out


Don't put too much rice on each nori sheet or it will not roll up very well.  You can also make the rice on the outside of the roll just add a bit more than I did here and flip it over and add the ingredients to the other side and roll


Roll the wrap forward and firmly to make everything stick together


Set rolled sushi aside on a clean plate


Wrap each roll individually and refrigerate until ready to serve


Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, pickled ginger or whatever you like.
