  • What's going on Sauce Makers?

  • My name is Mark and welcome to Sauce Stash.

  • Today we're gonna be making some sushi rice.

  • So sushi rice is simply just a short grain rice mixed with vinegar, sugar and salt.

  • So let's get started.

  • It's really easy.

  • We have two cups of short grain rice, two cups of cold water, one tablespoon of salt, quarter cup of sugar, quarter cup of rice vinegar and a quarter cup of white wine vinegar.

  • So you just want to make sure that when you make your sushi rice, that your short grain rice is rinsed very well.

  • So I rinse my rice five times, run it through the water, run it through a colander, run it through the water, run it through the colander and let it dry for about 15 minutes.

  • You end up with a dry white rice and you can tell the color change is really nice once it's ready to go.

  • So to get started, we're gonna add our white rice to a medium sauce pan on high heat, add the two cups of cold water.

  • And now we're gonna bring it to a boil.

  • Once it boils, we're gonna lower it to a medium heat and throw the cover on it.

  • Ok.

  • So it's been a few minutes.

  • This has been brought to a boil.

  • So I'm going to turn this down to a medium heat, put the lid on and we're gonna walk away for about 10 minutes.

  • Ok.

  • So the 1st 10 minute timer is up, we're gonna actually just going to turn this to a low setting, a very low setting and allow it to cook for 10 more minutes.

  • OK.

  • So it's been about 10 minutes on low.

  • We're gonna remove the rice from the heat and just allow it to stand untouched for about another 15 minutes.

  • The big thing with sushi rice is just the waiting game.

  • So while we're waiting for the rice to finish up, we're going to now mix up the vinegar mixture, the seasoning mixture.

  • So again, we just have our two vinegars, sugar and salt and we're just gonna slowly stir these to allow them to combine and allow the sugar to dissolve.

  • So we've let everything sit for about 15 minutes.

  • The vinegar mixture is done and the rice is done.

  • So we're gonna transfer everything over to a large bowl and I'm gonna slowly mix in.

  • This is the last process of it.

  • And then you're gonna have sushi rice, sticky sushi rice.

  • So we got a large bowl.

  • Again, we're gonna use a spatula because this is gonna be sticky and then we're gonna kind of just bunch it in here.

  • Look at that.

  • Yeah, it's just beautiful.

  • So with the vinegar mixture, you don't want to just directly pour it over, then start mixing in, you kind of wanna fan it into the mixture.

  • So you're just gonna pour slightly over your spatula or your spoon, whatever you're using.

  • And then that way, it just kind of lightly drizzles over the rice.

  • So we're gonna use like a chopping and folding method to get the mixture mixed in.

  • And this is also going to fluff up the rice too.

  • Now, it's also recommended to slightly fan off the rice, which will help it dry.

  • Well, that's it, Sauce Makers, sushi rice.

  • Use this to make your sushi, your sushi bowls, your poke bowls, you know this for a bunch of different stuff.
