Delicious Sushi that Can be Made at Home
1.
The best rice for sushi is round rice, which tastes better than that of sharp rice and has a fuller look. Because when making sushi, you have to roll the rice in a bamboo curtain and press it. The full rice is more resistant to pressure (haha, this is my understanding). I chose Northeast Rice-Pearl Rice. The first few times I only added pearl rice to make it, but later I found that adding some glutinous rice to it was better. Because glutinous rice is sticky, it is easier to spread when spreading rice, and the taste is not bad. Mix the pearl rice and glutinous rice evenly, as you usually do. After cooking, take the chopsticks while it is hot and lightly spread it, and then let it cool until it is not too hot. The time is about 20 minutes. While the rice is cooling down, let's chop the vegetables and move our bones. Cut cucumbers and carrots into long strips shorter than seaweed. If you don't like raw food, you can blanch the carrots with cooking oil. My family doesn't like to eat raw food, so I blanched it with olive oil. Stir the eggs evenly, spread them into omelets, let cool, and cut into long strips. It is best to use a frying pan for omelets. Heat evenly, so that the fried omelets will not be dark on one side and half dark on the other. Brush the pan with oil, pour the egg mixture, spread the bottom of the pan, and hold back! Hold it down for a minute. Turn it over in one minute and fry for another minute. By the way, you have to use a small fire throughout. Okay, we're done with the vegetables, we need to make sushi vinegar. Don't underestimate this little sushi vinegar, whether sushi is good or not, it is the key "big man"! If you have conditions, you can buy a bottle of sushi vinegar in the supermarket (attention, yes

After finishing the preparation, 20 minutes passed. Pour the adjusted sushi vinegar slowly into the rice and stir it with chopsticks. Taste the taste of the rice in the mouth, you can add it if you feel it is not enough. After mixing the rice, I bought a big bag of seaweed, which can make more meals. If you want to eat sushi occasionally, you don't need to buy a big bag. Large supermarkets sell simple small bags of seaweed.

I just said that the rice needs to be pressed to make sushi, and it is pressed with this bamboo curtain. First lay the bamboo curtains flat, spread the rice evenly on the bamboo curtains, leaving a gap of about 2cm around each. Put the carrots, cucumber, egg strips, and ham on the rice, try to put the ingredients together, it is better to roll it. After spreading, squeeze some sweet salad dressing, especially delicious. Then comes the most exciting moment of making sushi! After doing this step, you can have delicious sushi. Hahaha. Pull up the bamboo curtain close to your body, press the ingredients with your hands a little, release the fingers that hold the ingredients almost when you roll it, roll it in a circle, press the seaweed roll with your hands a few times, but don't use too much force, because If you press too hard, the rice will be pressed too hard, and it will not taste very tasty. After rolling a circle, pull the bamboo curtain, roll another circle, press again, roll another circle, press again, just like rolling a snowball. After the roll is finished, press the two sides of the seaweed roll again to make it more shaped, and it will be easier to cut when it is cut.

It looks like this after the roll. Uh, it's like this after being bitten by me.

You can pack it like this if you bring a lunch box.
Tips:
1. The fillings can be added or subtracted according to your preference. For carnivores, you can also add pork strips, chicken strips, and pork floss.
2. I put a fresh-keeping bag on the bamboo curtain for easy cleaning. It is difficult to clean the bamboo curtain if it is accidentally stained with rice, so a fresh-keeping bag is put in it. But it doesn't feel environmentally friendly. If you have a better idea, you can tell me, thank you.
