- STEP 1 – DEFROST SEAFOOD You get most of our seafood frozen. In order to maintain the sashimi quality of our products, it is best to thaw the seafood very gently and slowly. You can find detailed instructions on how best to defrost our seafood in our defrosting instructions. Then take the seafood out of the fridge and let it come to room temperature.
- STEP 2 – COOK SUSHI RICE In the meantime, you can start preparing the heart of the sushi – the sushi rice. First, rinse the rice several times in a sieve under cold running water. Then put the rice and water in a pot. The ratio should be approximately 1 to 1.2. So for every cup of rice there are 1.2 cups of water. Boil the rice briefly and then let it simmer at reduced temperature with the lid closed for 15 minutes until the rice has completely absorbed the water. Finally, mix the rice with rice vinegar, salt and sugar and cover the mixture with a kitchen towel.
- STEP 3 – PREPARE THE INGREDIENTS Depending on your preference, wash avocado, cucumber, carrots or other vegetables and cut them into fine strips. Now cut the seafood into 3-4 millimeter thin strips. To do this, use the sharpest knife possible and cut in an even motion without pressure so as not to crush the seafood.
- STEP 4 – ROLL SUSHI Now cut the nori seaweed sheet into a rectangular shape. Now wrap the bamboo mat in cling film, place the nori sheet on it and spread the cooked rice on the sheet. Dip your fingers regularly in cold water to prevent the rice from sticking to your fingers. Depending on your preference, spread a pinch of wasabi on the rice and place the seafood and the prepared vegetables on the rice. Then use the bamboo mat to roll the nori sheet and rice around the ingredients and press firmly. To finish, cut the sushi roll into 2-3 centimeter wide pieces and serve with soy sauce, wasabi and sushi ginger.
