Sushi Rice
Keys : Rice Japanese Japan Asian Oriental
Ingredients :
2 cup Japanese white rice
2 1/2 cup Water
1/3 cup Mirin (rice cooking wine)
3 tbl Rice vinegar
1/2 tsp Salt
Method :
* Gently rinse the rice a couple of times until the water is clear. Drain it in a colander for half an hour. Place the rice and water in a heavy pot covered tightly with a lid. Cook over medium-high heat for 10 minutes until steam escapes the lid. Immediately turn the heat to low and cook for 10 - 15 minutes, until all the water has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and let the rice stand, covered, for 10 minutes.
* In the meantime, heat the mirin, vinegar, and salt in a small saucepan until the salt is dissolved.
* Put the cooked rice in a large mixing bowl. While vigorously fanning the rice to cool it (newspapers or a small electric fan is useful, not to mention a friend), slowly stir in the mirin mixture. Continue stirring and fanning until the rice is cool.
* Makes 4 cups.
