Instructions
- 1
Rinse the sushi rice in a fine-mesh strainer under cold water, swirling with your hand, until the water runs nearly clear, about 1–2 minutes. Combine the rinsed rice and 1 1/4 cups water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to the lowest setting, cover tightly, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let steam, covered, for 10 minutes — do not lift the lid during this time.

While the rice steams, stir together the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl until the sugar and salt dissolve.
