And before getting to the recipes, I must show you a few useful tips and tricks which will not only help you make the rolls easy but also crazy delish.

How to make sushi at home easy - Best Tips and Tricks

1. Which is the best rice for sushi
Short-grain Japanese or medium-grain California rice is the best rice for sushi because when cooked, it gets a stickier texture than the long-grain alternative. The latter usually gets fluffy after cooking which is great for many other dishes but not for homemade sushi.

You'll often find it labeled and advertised as sushi rice. The grains are short, rounded and translucent, with a small white spot at one end.

It's worth mentioning that Japanese rice is often covered in powdered starch or talc to keep it dry. This is why it's very important to rinse it before cooking.

Also, keep in mind that you should use a 1:1.25 rice to water ratio, which means that for every cup of rice you need to add 1 1/4 cup of water.

Now let's move on and see how to season sushi rice.

2. How to season sushi rice
You can season it with a mixture of rice vinegar, sugar and a pinch of salt.

You'd have to mix these 3 ingredients well until the sugar and salt are perfectly dissolved. Then pour the mixture over the rice and, using a rice paddle, toss and stir gently being careful not to mash the grains.

For best flavor, you should add vinegar to the rice while it's still warm.

3. How to fill and roll homemade sushi

As I said above, a sushi making kit is ideal for beginners because it makes the whole process a lot easier, especially rolling.

I recommend you to wrap the bamboo mat in cling film to prevent the rice from getting between the bamboo sticks. This way, you won't even have to wash it because it doesn't get in direct contact with any of the ingredients.

Otherwise, you'll have to give it a quick wash under running water.

You're welcome! Now let's see a few more interesting tricks.

Bear in mind that the rolls must have a balanced rice-to-filling ratio. If you add too much filling, it won't roll and seal, and if you add too much rice, it'll come out way to bland.

If you're a beginner, it's best to stick to the quantities in my easy homemade sushi recipes below. Once you get the hang of it, you can start experimenting to see how you like it best.

Another trick worth mentioning is when you roll the bamboo mat, apply some pressure to make sure it's tight. If it's not tight enough, it will make cutting a lot more difficult as the filling will come off.
