Buy sushi rice online

Sushi rice is a special type of short-grain rice that becomes sticky when cooked, making it ideal for sushi rolls and nigiri.

Seasoned rice vinegar, which includes sugar and salt, is traditionally mixed into cooked sushi rice.

For best results, use authentic sushi or short-grain Japanese rice, as other varieties won’t achieve the proper texture.

Rinsing removes excess starch for a less gummy, more polished texture.

Ideally, consume it the same day, but you can cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Reheat gently with a damp towel to restore texture.

It's not recommended, as the texture may change dramatically upon thawing.

Let it cool slightly and use while slightly warm or at room temperature, never cold from the fridge.
