Master homemade Japanese Salmon Sushi featuring vinegared Koshihikari sushi rice, fresh sashimi-grade salmon slices, buttery avocado rolls, wasabi, and pickled gari ginger.
Rinse Koshihikari rice until water runs clear. Cook rice with a 1:1.1 water ratio. Dissolve rice vinegar, sugar, and salt over low heat. Pour warm seasoning over steaming rice, tossing gently while fanning to create shiny, perfectly seasoned grains.
Pat salmon fillet dry. Slice salmon diagonally across the grain into 6cm x 3cm rectangular slices for Nigiri.
Dampen hands with water. Shape a small oval rice ball. Dab a touch of wasabi on salmon slice and press onto rice ball. For maki rolls: spread rice onto nori, layer avocado and salmon strips, and roll tightly with a bamboo mat.
Slice maki roll into 8 rounds with a wet chef's knife. Arrange Nigiri and Maki on a wooden platter, serving alongside Japanese soy sauce, fresh wasabi, and pickled gari ginger.
Q: Why fan the sushi rice while seasoning?
A: Fanning cools the rice quickly, locking in moisture while creating glossy, distinct grains.
