The practice of sushi

The main ingredients of sushi:

Rice, vinegar and fish.

Let's talk about rice first: it's best to use a rice cooker. Wash the rice before cooking. Don't rub with your hands, stir with a rice spoon or a wooden stick until the water becomes clear. How much should I put in the water? Just put your whole palm in the rice cooker and let the water reach your wrist.

Rice should be mixed with vinegar. If you can afford it, you'd better buy kelp vinegar If you can't afford it, you can use white rice vinegar instead. But no matter what vinegar, you should burn it in advance, add some sake (if not, you can use white wine instead) and add some sugar. How much depends on personal taste. The main principle is that it is best not to have the sour taste in the original vinegar.

Vinegar mixed with rice, rice should be hot, bibimbap should be big, not too deep, but it must be big, so that it can breathe and the rice will not stick together. The vinegar should be added bit by bit, while stirring. It's best to have a big wooden basin if possible, so that the rice won't get cold soon. How much vinegar should I add? When the rice is sour, the taste can be heavier, because when the rice is cold, the taste will become weak.

Fish: Fresh marine fish is the best, and salmon, tuna and tuna are the most common. I don't recommend it when cooking sushi at home, because it is difficult to buy fresh tuna in the market. Fresh tuna should be bright red like beef, and the color should be dark or dark. It's best not to eat it raw, it will cause diarrhea. If you want to eat, you'd better fry it and put it in sushi.

Salmon, fresh three-striped fish depends on the eyes, the eyes are bright, you should touch the fish with your fingers, and then put it under your nose to smell. Everything that doesn't smell like fish is fresh.

There are two ways to make sushi, one is rice balls and the other is rolls. Of course, there is sashimi (also known as sashimi), which pays great attention to the knife work and the freshness of fish. )

Rice ball style:

The practice of fish

This is the simplest. Cut the fish fillet into pieces 2.5 cm wide and 5-6 cm long. When slicing, you should tilt the slice. Then make a 2*2*4.5 cuboid rice ball with a little green mustard in the middle of the fish fillet, then buckle the rice ball, turn it upside down and put it on a plate for shaping.

Vegetables, crab sticks and eggs are made in the same way as rice balls. The only difference is that a piece of seaweed is tied to it, which is stronger and more delicious.

Volume:

Generally, you can buy seaweed slices for sushi in stores. Personally, I find it difficult to buy good Japanese seaweed. In fact, many Korean lavers are very good and cheaper.

Generally, one generation 10 film can make 20 volumes. Each roll can be divided into 6 pieces, which means that a bag of laver can make 20 different kinds of sushi, one piece is *** 120.

Porphyra rolls can also be divided into two types, one is the outer roll, and the other is the inner roll (rice is inside and laver is outside).

The practice of external volume:

A piece of seaweed, folded in half and divided into two pieces. Take half and look at it carefully. Porphyra is divided into two sides, the smooth side faces down, and the rough side is evenly coated with rice. Dosage of rice: Hold a rice ball slightly smaller than the palm of your hand in your hand and put it in the center of laver, pushing it from the inside out and from the middle to both sides. If your hands feel sticky, you can wet them with water.

After the whole seaweed is covered with rice, sprinkle some white sesame seeds in the middle, then turn the seaweed over, apply a little green mustard in the middle, and put something you like. Now it starts to roll. Pick up the long bottom roll and roll it in the middle again.

Internal volume:

Unlike the outer roll, use a bamboo curtain. You can make it if you don't need it, but the shape of sushi is not very good and it is easy to disperse.

Put half a piece of laver under the bamboo curtain, still facing down smoothly, and then put a rice ball 1/3 smaller than the palm of your hand in the middle of laver. That is, slowly push out the rice, but this time don't spread the rice with seaweed, leaving 2 cm on the top and 1 cm on the bottom. Then spread mustard and put what you like (not too much). When rolling, pull the laver to align with the bottom of the bamboo curtain, then roll it to the middle, put down the bamboo curtain below and roll it with the bamboo curtain, and it will be fine!
