  5. Transfer the rice to a shallow dish.
  6. In a small bowl, stir together the rice vinegar, sugar and salt. If the sugar and salt don't dissolve fully, microwave for half a minute at 600 W and stir. Repeat until fully dissovled.
  7. Season the rice with the mix, stirring it in thoroughly.
  8. Cover the seasoned rice with a damp cloth and let it cool to body temperature before using it to make sushi.
  9. Meal Prep Tip

  10. You can make the sushi rice ahead of time. Once it has fully cooled, you can store it for up to a week in an airtight container in the fridge. Just make sure to remove it from the fridge and let it come to room temperature. If you need to save time, you can also gently microwave it.
