Nori
Let’s start with the Nori. You’re going to need some sheets of dried Nori Seaweed. Now I found mine at my local grocery store in the Asian Section near the Soy Sauce, Rice Noodles, etc. If your grocery doesn’t carry it, look and see if you have an Asian Grocery Store nearby, they will be sure to carry it.
Sushi Rice
Next, you’ll need some Sushi Rice. Sushi Rice is a short to medium grained white rice that we’ll season after cooking. I’ll provide a recipe below. Basically, you’ll need 2 cups of rice, 2 cups of water, sugar, salt, and some Rice Vinegar.
Jasmine Rice and Basmati Rice are both long grained rice, so stick with a Japanese medium grain for making Sushi. This is also called ‘sticky’ rice. You want your rolls to stick together when they are done, not fall apart.
