These are meant for the culinary challenged. Even you can make these meals…. Dumb Ass!

Sushi is much easier to make than you might imagine- some basic techniques, including making the vinegar sushi rice, require little practice, but once you have mastered these, you will be ready to impress with your skills! The only "must" is a sushi rolling mat, which is inexpensive and often available in grocery stores. Get creative with ingredients, after all.. authenticity is part of the fun!

For the rice:
vinegar Mix- Heat up 1/4 cup rice vinegar, 2 teaspoons salt, and half cup sugar in a sauce pan on the stove over medium heat until sugar and salt are dissolved. Do NOT boil.
The Rice- rinse the rice in cold water.
Cooking the sushi Rice-Steam the rinsed rice in an equal amount of water (i.e.: 2 cups of rice and 2 cups of water) follow directions but usually you have to cook it over very low heat until the water is evaporated and you are left with lovely sticky rice or save time and use a rice cooker.

*As always when cooking rice on the stovetop, use very low heat after the initial boil and keep the lid on at all times. The trapped steam is what enables the rice to cook.
