I've used this recipe about half a dozen times. It is perfect, the secret I never did before was the sugar and rice vinegar when I cooked my japanese rice. My older daughter loves california rolls and the compliment I got from her when she opened up her lunch was that she thought I bought them at a Japanese restaurant. I didn't like it as sweet though so put a little less sugar in.

I love the taste of sushi rice. This time, I served it hot with Japanese Zucchini and Onions on top.

I´ve only once made sushi rice before and they turned out to be all mushy and just not that tasty. This recipe however is perfect! The rice turned out to be just like the ones they use in the restaurants! (Also after youtubing how to make sushi rice, that helped a lot! Hhahaha)

I used the proportions of rice, water, and seasonings called for and the finished rice was delicious. I did have to heat the vinegar mixture in the microwave for a few seconds to get the sugar to dissolve completely. I also must have cooked the rice at too low a temperature as I had to give it a few extra minutes on the stove before it seemed all done. Great recipe.

I did not have any konbu dried kelp however I decided to give it a try anyway. This recipe is great except that to our taste it had too much vinegar. Otherwise, the rice came out perfect.

I made according to directions minus the konbu dried kelp and it turned out fabulous. The secret is to follow the instructions carefully-let the rice sit/dry completely etc. (do not mess with it too much) ALSO: When adding the rice vinegar mixture do not mix it in but kneed with very few strokes just until combined so the rice grains keep their integrity and do not become soft and paste like. I highly recommend this recipe...thank you for posting!

Great recipe, removed the kelp though ... not due to preference, just didn't have it on hand. I would actually reduce the vinegar and sugar slightly. My rice was a little too "sticky" and it made it difficult to roll. As with all sushi rice, make sure you have a bit of vinegar/water mix to wet your fingers so the rice doesn't stick and make a mess! This mix is also great to wet your knife before slicing your sushi so it cuts through nice and clean. Overall great recipe!

Great recipe for sushi rice, but it came out a little on the mushy side so I'm going to reduce the amount of water by just a little bit next time. One thing to note: When you initially pour in the vinegar mixture and mix the rice, it may seem overly sweet. You have to thoroughly mix the rice and then let it completely cool before using it. The flavor changes as it cools. I was scared about the sweetness at first, but after it completely cooled, I used it to make my California Maki (roll). It tasted perfect - restaurant quality sushi rice. I'm definitely keeping this recipe!
