  • 3 cups short-grain Japanese rice or pearl rice
  • 1 small bundle dried rolled kelp

    SEASONING
  • 1/3 cup rice wine vinegar
  • 1½ tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • How To Cook:
    1. Rinse the rice and place it in a colander to drain. Place the rice in a heavy covered saucepan and allow to sit for ½ hour in the pot.

    2. Add 3½ cups of water and the kelp roll. Place the pan on high heat and, when the rice begins to boil, remove the kelp piece and discard.

    3. Boil for 2 minutes, lid off. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the rice cool for 10 minutes, lid on.

    4. In the meantime, heat the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt just until everything dissolves. Allow to cool.

    5. Place the rice in a large pan. Pour on the seasoning liquid and stir with a wooden spoon, fanning all the time. (Otherwise, use a hand-held fan, stirring and fanning at the same time for about 3 minutes.)

    6. The rice is now complete. Keep it in the pan under a moist towel as you use it.
