How to Prepare | Make California Rolls #9
sushi
The folowing items needed: sushi mat, couch roll, prepared nori with rice, plate with water and ingredients that will go into the roll.

Place couch roll on top of the mat.

Pour some water on the couch roll and use your hand to spread the water.
It is done to reduce the stickiness of the rice.

Place Nori with rice upside down (rice in the bottom, nori on top) just like on the picture.
Add ingredients.

Slowly bend.

Use strength to tighten the roll and force the rice to stick to Nori. Try make it as tight as possible, just don’t overdo it.

When you got the rice to stick to Nori, slowly pull out the plastic couch.

Slowly Roll and watch for the plastic.

The result looks quite tasty.

Instructions are good, but I always find that there are small things that I have forgot to add. I will try to keep the guide more detailed.
Thank you,

Hey sushi! Thanks for the awesome tutorial! Today I’m planning to make chicken, bacon and spinach sushi rolls and I had no idea how to do it even though the nori package was in frank english! Arigato again for the help! Does sushi rice taste good compared to regular rice?

It is a bit different. ^.^
OMG! I never seen sushi you just mentioned. When you make it, take some pictures and send it my way.
I wanna see how is it and what it taste like. I never experimented with chicken and spinach. Really strange ingredients.
Good Luck.

this is too cool I just made sushi the other night, for the first time.
I did Crab sticks, avocado and cucumber, but I might try some smoked salmon and cream cheese someday (bagel roll)
I need one of those paddles, the hardest part was definitely getting the rice layer thin enough, it was ok, but a little thicker than I would have liked. I have also discovered that my son LOVES nori. He’ll ask me for a sheet just to snack on. Weird, lol.
Thanks for the great instructions. I pretty much did it right, but I still learned from this.

Just a question, is it still a california roll if you use the rice, the nori, the avocado, and instead of the fish, you use crab meat? Thats the way I like it

California Roll is any roll with rice outside. Ingredients could vary.

Dude, I prepared baja california rolls!!i did not have the seaweed so I rolled my perfectly cooked rice on a bed of 13 grain bread. I flattened the bread with a roller. Added crab, carrot, avocado, jalapeno and asparagus spears. The combination of grains,nuts, and soy sauce, rocked this new procedure.

I am experimenting new ways to roll sushi. Especially the all famous California Roll. instead of Seaweed (Nori) i have been dabbling with a mango sheet, banana sheet, and a spicy habanero sheet flattened in a pasta machine to enable the rice to be spread onto the sheet. The new flavors ROCK!!!

this is pretty easy to make and the most important is you can find easily the ingredients of this sushi.
