Rice is arguably the most important ingredient in sushi. We use Japanese short grain rice and mix it with a seasoning made from rice vinegar, sugar and salt.

Sushi making can definitely feel daunting but when you break it down into pieces, it’s not that hard. Follow my tips on how to make sushi at home.
Hosomaki are thin sushi rolls with nori on the outside and just 1 ingredient inside. Common fillings include tuna, avocado, salmon or tamago (Japanese omelet).
Aburi, or flame seared sushi, is one of my favourites and a big crowd pleaser at dinner parties. Your friends will be impressed as you flame up their fish.
Futomaki are thick sushi rolls with 4-5 ingredients inside. They are traditionally served on special occasions such as New Year’s celebrations or weddings but I make them every time I make sushi!
