Ingredients

  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 8 oz fresh sashimi-grade fish (e.g., tuna, salmon)
  • Wasabi (to taste)
  • Soy sauce (for serving)
  • Pickled ginger (for serving)

Instructions

  1. 1Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
  2. 2In a rice cooker or pot, combine the rinsed rice and water. Cook according to the rice cooker's instructions or bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes until the water is absorbed.
  3. 3Once cooked, let the rice sit covered for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a large bowl.
  4. 4In a small saucepan, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Heat gently until sugar and salt dissolve. Pour this mixture over the rice and gently fold it in with a spatula. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
  5. 5While the rice cools, slice the sashimi-grade fish into thin, bite-sized pieces (about 1/4 inch thick).
  6. 6Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking, then take a small amount of sushi rice (about 1 oz) and form it into an oval shape.
  7. 7Place a slice of fish on top of the rice mound. Optionally, add a small dab of wasabi between the rice and fish.
  8. 8Repeat the process until all the rice and fish are used up.
  9. 9Serve the nigiri sushi with soy sauce and pickled ginger on the side.

Sashimi nigiri is a traditional Japanese dish that combines the art of sushi making with the delicate flavors of fresh fish.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz sushi-grade fish (e.g., salmon, tuna)
  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Nori sheets (optional)
  • Soy sauce (for serving)
  • Wasabi (for serving)
  • Pickled ginger (for serving)

Instructions

  1. 1Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well.
  2. 2In a rice cooker or pot, cook the sushi rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool slightly.
  3. 3In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the warm rice, being careful not to mash the grains.
  4. 4Slice the sushi-grade fish into thin pieces, about 1/4 inch thick.
  5. 5Take a small amount of sushi rice (about 1 oz) and mold it into an oval shape with your hands.
  6. 6Place a slice of fish on top of the rice mound. If using nori, you can wrap a small strip around the nigiri to hold it together.
  7. 7Using a kitchen torch, carefully sear the top of the fish until it is lightly charred. Be cautious not to overcook it.
  8. 8Repeat the process for the remaining fish and rice.
  9. 9Serve the torched nigiri with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
