how to make california roll

Here is a detailed guide on how to make a delicious California roll at home:

  1. Start by preparing the sushi rice. Rinse 1 cup of sushi rice in a fine-mesh strainer until the water runs clear. Then, cook the rice according to the package instructions.
  2. While the rice is cooking, prepare your filling ingredients. Traditional California rolls include imitation crab sticks, avocado, and cucumber. You'll also need nori (seaweed sheets) and a bamboo sushi mat.
  3. Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and gently fold in 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
  4. Place a sheet of nori on the bamboo mat, shiny side down. Wet your hands with water to prevent the rice from sticking, and spread a thin layer of rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
  5. Arrange a few slices of avocado, cucumber, and crab sticks in the center of the rice. To roll the sushi, lift the edge of the mat closest to you and tightly roll it away from you, pressing gently to seal the roll.
  6. Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Wet the knife with water in between cuts to prevent sticking.
  7. Serve your California rolls with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi for a complete sushi experience!

Enjoy your homemade California roll!
