Cooking method
To prepare a traditional Japanese dish, we will need pre-washed rice, which must be poured into a saucepan with a thickened bottom. Fill the rice with water and cook for about 15 minutes with the lid closed. Then remove the saucepan from the heat and leave it without opening the lid for 10 minutes. After that, add salt, vinegar and sugar to the rice. To make sushi, we moisten our hands in water with ginger diluted in it, and roll the rice into small balls or sausages with a diameter of about 3 cm. Rice should be squeezed tightly for the best adhesion. For each ball or sausage, we put a little wasabi, then sashimi (instead of fish, you can use black caviar, tuna breast), then boiled shrimp and a little algae. Serve sushi better with soy sauce.
The whole highlight of this dish is the use of wasabi. This is the usual horseradish from Japan. It looks like a green toothpaste and has a sharp and bright taste. Real wasabi can only be found in Japan, and in expensive restaurants. Therefore, try to transfer a piece of the Japanese spirit to your kitchen by cooking sushi with wasabi.
