Ingredients
- 2 cups rice
- 1 3/4 cups water
- 4–5 tbsp sushi vinegar
Instructions
- Wash 2 cups of the rice (do not wash and rinse too long, so as to avoid losing the vitamin B1, content in the rice). Drain when the rice is clean, white, and translucent.
- Add 1-3/4 cups water and soak half-hour or longer.
- Cook in electrical rice cookware (or on an electrical or gas stove) till done. leave the rice covered for another 15 minutes after turning off the heat.
- Pour the sushi vinegar over the cooked rice while the rice is still hot, and mix it in with a rice paddle.
- Fan the rice while mixing in the vinegar. Do this till the rice is light-weight and flossy, and the flavor of the vinegar dispersed. Do not allow the rice grains to cling together in clumps, and do not squish the grains, or the rice will become sticky and pasty.
