Ingredients
- 100 g sushi rice
- 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
- a pinch of salt
- a pinch of sugar
- 200 g fresh tuna
- 4 roasted nori sheets
- 1 tsp wasabi
- 3 tbsp scallions
Instructions
-
1.
Wash the sushi rice thoroughly under running water in a sieve until the water runs clear.
-
2.
Add 150 ml water and a small piece of kombu to an unheated cooking container and steam at 100°C for 18 minutes in an electric steamer, stirring occasionally.
-
3.
Heat 1 tbsp rice vinegar and stir with salt and sugar.
-
4.
Transfer the rice to a bowl, remove the seaweed. With a rice or cooking spoon, crosswise sweep through the rice while slowly pouring in the seasoning mixture. Fan the rice with a fan simultaneously so it cools quickly to room temperature and gains a nice shine.
-
5.
Wash the tuna, pat dry, and cut into very fine cubes.
-
6.
Cut each nori sheet across in half. Divide the rice into 8 portions and shape each portion with damp hands into an elongated mound. Place one half of a nori sheet on top of each mound, press lightly flat, add a small amount of wasabi paste, then top with tuna cubes and green onion, rolling into a pouch-shaped temaki sushi. Serve with soy sauce if desired.
