Ingredients

Scale

2 cups sushi rice
2 1/4 cups water
2 Tablespoons rice vinegar
2 Tablespoons sugar
1 Tablespoon kosher salt

Instructions

Put the rice in a small mixing bowl, fill most of the way with water and swirl around with your fingers. Pour the rice into a colander to rinse out the water, spray the rice well to remove any excess starch, then put back in the bowl and repeat a few times until the water stays clear when you swirl the rice around.
Place the rice and 2 1/4 cups water in a nonstick saucepan. Bring to a boil, then cover, reduce heat and cook for about 15 minutes or until the rice is perfectly tender. Remove from heat and, leaving the cover on, let it cool for about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine the rice vinegar, sugar and salt in a small bowl. Once the rice is done resting, stir this mixture into the rice, stirring to coat all the rice with the sticky mixture. The rice should be very, very sticky.
