The list of ingredients for Sushi is very extensive. Therefore, you are

list. More are listed in the recipes section.
These ingredients can be used to make your rolls, be creative and
experiment new things as you progress.

Note about Wasabe
The real wasabi is an expensive root that takes about 3 years
to come to maturity and does not keep for very long. We use
instead Japaneese Horseradish; which is what you usually
find in restaurants and in tubes in supermarket. If you have
a choice, do not buy the one in tube, prefer the powder one,
you will be able to make it as strong as you want, keep it for
longer and there will be no additional salt and preservatives.

Dry- Roasted Seaweed (Nori)
Please get the most expensive Nori you can find to ensure you make good
sushi. Raw nori sheets have a brownish-red to purplish color, and they are
hard to find. Most nori sold today is very lightly roasted to bring out its
flavor and to enhance its texture. When nori is roasted, its color deepens to
black.
Choose nori with a dark black color. Over-toasting changes the color to
light green. Moderate quality nori may have a hint of a deep green sheen.
Lighter green nori is substandard. One side of the nori sheet should be
shiny; the other a flat color.
Nori is highly susceptible to deterioration from humidity. Soft nori sheets
have been damaged by exposure to moisture. Choose nori that is crisp,
almost brittle. Nori becomes soft quickly when rolled with wet sushi rice so
it is best to make sushi rolls right before you serve it. That is why good
sushi chefs always directly present hand rolls to the diner for immediate
eating.
This way, the nori will retain its delightful crispness. Even nori that is
wrapped
around
sushi
rice
should
never
be
chewy.
Be sure to apply the sushi rice to the rougher side (not the shiny side) of
the nori. The sushi rice should always be around 38 degrees when used
with nori.
For those not too fan about the seaweed, you can use many more options.
We have listed for you a couple of pages of alternatives to Nori to show you
what can be done with Sushi, enjoy!

Dry roasted seaweed (Nori) substitutes 1
Soy wrapper (Mamenori)
Great for the kids and colourful dinners, these soy wrappers can turn your
sushi into amazing creative designs. Taste is not as good as Nori, still
worth a try.
Rice paper and salad leaves
A favourite for the summer, use rice paper, cover it with salad leaves, then
spread your rice and ingredients…simply roll and enjoy!
Parma ham
Perfect for your Maki
rolls, leave the fatty
part at the top with no
rice on and cover the
meat
with
rice.
Experiment with sun
blushed tomatoes and
some
thinly
sliced
mozzarella…
A real treat!

Dry roasted seaweed (Nori) substitutes 2
Smoked Salmon
Lay a couple of slices of smoked salmon on your rolling mat to replicate
the size of ½ piece of Nori; cover with rice & ingredients, roll, cut , enjoy!
Nothing at all, simply rice:
Crepes – Plain or Chocolate!
Mix chocolate in your crepes mix
and make a batch of a few nice
dark crepes. Trim them into the
size of a piece of Nori and place
onto the sushi rolling mat.
Add rice and leave ¾ inch at the
top with no rice. Add your fillings
(Ex:
Mango,
strawberries,
blackberry jam, kiwi) and add a
dab of honey at the top of the
crepe to seal the roll.
Roll on, cut it and enjoy!
Inari Sushi (Abura
(Aburabura-age )
Thinly sliced, deep fried tofu,
it can actually be slit open and
stuffed like you would a pita
bread. This tofu is available
frozen or fresh and can be
seriously addictive…not super
healthy!

Cooking Sushi Rice
Ingredients:
Makes enough rice for about 3 California rolls, also 20, assorted Nigiri sushi.
•
•
•
•
•
375ml (or1 ½ cup) Japanese Sushi Rice
500ml (or 2 cups) of Water
60ml (or ¼ cup) Cup Rice Vinegar
30ml (or 2 Tbsp) Sugar
5ml (or 1 Tbsp) Salt
uy good Japanese Sushi Rice from many asian shops;
shop we like
You can buy
using Minori Sushi rice, but experiment with others and try them out!
Method:
Pour the rice into a clean bowl and wash it in cold water until the
th water
runs almost clear.
Once water runs semi--clear,
clear, drain rice of any excess water and let the rice
stand for 15min before adding 500ml of water into the rice.
You can cook the rice using a rice cooker or in a pot over the stove. If you
are cooking overr the stove, cover the pot (with a thick bottom) and bring to
boil. Once it is boiling, turn the heat to a simmer and leave it for 10mins.
After 10mins, turn the heat off and let the rice stand for another 10mins
with the lid still on. DO NOT REMOVE THE LID
LID during the whole duration of
the cooking and simmering.
While the rice is cooking, we’ll prepare our vinegar mixture
by pouring our rice vinegar, sugar and salt into a clean pot
and bring it to a simmer.
You can also buy pre--mixed vinegar like this one, it can be
easier if you are in a hurry.
When the rice and vinegar mixture is fully dissolved, let it cool down, and
pour the rice into a large glass or ceramic lasagne dish and add the vinegar
mixture to the rice. Go slowly and add it bit by bits to
to make sure it is
evenly spread out. You might not have to use it all, look for the shine and
taste it. Remember that with time, the rice will lose its acidity also.

Loosen the rice lightly with a
wooden/plastic spoon to ensure that
the vinegar mixture is coating each
grain of rice. You want the rice to move
freely in the dish, so if you have lots of
rice, do it in 2 steps!
Never use metal at this stage, it would
interact with the rice and vinegar and
give a horrible metallic taste to your
sushi!
When mixing the rice with the vinegar,
take your time and make sure that you
are trying to break down into individual
grain any lumps of rice as well as trying to coat each grain of rice with the
mixture.
You can fan the rice with a fan in the other hand or an electric fan to cool
the rice down a bit quicker if you wish.
Note: you do not have to fan the rice, but it needs to cool down to about 38
degrees to be perfect for Sushi, fanning it simply accelerates the process.
Please do not keep the rice in a fridge as it will make it hard and too dry to
taste. You can keep the rice at room temperature and cover the bowl with a
piece of damp cloth, ideally to be used within the next hour. Sushi rice is
best when it is freshly made. It can keep of course for a bit loner, but it will
lose a bit of its softness.
Some key points when making sushi
rice:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Always use freshly made rice, do not refrigerate. This dries the rice
and causes it to fall apart when moulded for sushi.
If using a Saucepan, make sure the lid is tight. This will prevent too
much water evaporation. Use a non-stick pan.
Carefully and accurately measure rice and water ingredients.
Don’t overcook or undercook your rice.
If the rice is too hard; try to pre-soak the rice for 30 minutes in
water after washing it; then see if you had enough water, or try to
steam it for longer at the end. Most likely it is the second reason, but
if you are sure about your measurements, try working on the other
two possible reasons.
If the rice is too strong or too bland, adjust the amounts of sushi rice
vinegar accordingly. You can also try to adjust the sushi rice vinegar
by adding salt, or sugar.

Nigiri Sushi – Basic ‘How to’ guide
Nigiri Sushi are very hard to master. First, you
need to learn how to slice fish, this is best done
by learning from someone and buying a whole
fish, then slicing
cing it and again and again and
again…then…do a fish pie!
Then, the
he rice should not be squeezed too tightly,
or too loose. Ideally, the rice should not fall apart
when the sushi is picked up, but will easily fall
apart with no effort when consumed.
It is also important to keep the hand slightly wet, so the sushi rice does not
stick to your hands so after immersing both hands in ice water, tezu, or
diluted sushi rice vinegar is applied on the hands. This acts as a sanitizer as
well. A light “clap” gets rid of excess moisture.
Hold the ingredient with your left
left hand by lightly
pinching it.
it Simultaneously, form a ball of sushi rice
with your right hand. The sushi rice should be loose
at this point.

Your Sushi Making Guide
If you have no or little experience with making sushi, this is the
perfect place to start. You will get the hang of it in a few tries, and
then you should be able to make them with ease and save a lot of
money!
Remember that Sushi is a way of cooking rather that a set of dishes.
What makes Sushi so good is combination of the rice and Sushi
vinegar mixed together; do not rush when preparing and mixing the
rice, it will make or break your sushi!
Be creative and always think about strong colour contrast and clean
arrangements to obtain best results.
In Sushi, 70% is preparation, so get everything ready and cleanly
laid out in front of you before you start!
Here at Your Sushi, we all have taught thousands of people across
the UK and the rest of the world how to make good sushi for many
years and this guide is our thank you to you, for joining us in our
Sushi revolution!
We have tried to share as many tips as possible in this book and will
be adding more soon.
Books are fine but it is always worth spending a few hours with a real
sushi chef to learn the tricks in real life…and nibble along!
Come and join us in our Your Sushi Workshop all over the UK; or
have us in your home or work parties to make and eat a lot of Sushi!
Enjoy it and do not hesitate to ask any questions, we are always
happy to help.
Best regards and from all the chefs at Your Sushi…
Happy Sushi making!
