CREAM CHEESE AND CRAB SUSHI ROLLS

Steps:

• Bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in rice vinegar and salt. Allow to cool completely.
• Lay out seaweed sheets. Moisten hands with water, then spread the rice evenly on each sheet, leaving a 1/2 inch gap along one edge, lengthwise. Arrange strips of cucumber, imitation crabmeat, and cream cheese in a straight line along the side opposite of the gap. Roll the sushi from the toppings to the exposed end of the the seaweed sheet.
• Using a sharp wet knife, slice each roll into 5 or 6 pieces. Serve with minced ginger on the side.

CALIFORNIA SUSHI ROLL

Steps:

• Rinse rice until water runs clear. Combine rice and 1 1/2 cups water in a saucepan and bring to a boil, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until water is completely absorbed and rice is soft, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Use a wooden spoon to transfer cooked rice to a non-metal bowl and set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, combine vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan and bring to a boil, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat and simmer 1 minute more. Combine vinegar mixture with the cooling rice a few tablespoons at a time until rice is coated; you may not need all of the vinegar mixture. Set aside to finish cooling completely, about 15 minutes.
• Place a sheet of nori on a sushi mat with the rough side facing up. Place a small bowl of water nearby. Use wet hands to evenly spread a handful of rice onto the nori. Arrange cucumber and crab across the nori, about 1/2 inch from the edge closest to you. Roll the wrap starting at the close edge and rolling away from yourself. Press and roll again to seal. Repeat with remaining nori, rice, cucumber, and crab.
• Dip a sharp knife into water and slice each roll into 8 pieces, rinsing the knife after each cut to prevent sticking.

HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE SUSHI (CRAB SUSHI)

Steps:

• Take two cups of rice and let it soak in water for about 20 minutes. (That will help it get more sticky!)
• Cook rice in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. A rice cooker is the best way to get perfect sticky-firm rice, but if you don't have one, you can use a saucepan.
• Let the rice cool. (I spread it out on plates to let it cook faster.)
• While the rice is cooking, shred your imitation crab and mix it with cream cheese.
• Cover a bamboo sushi mat with plastic wrap. Place a seaweed sheet rough-side up on the mat.
• Moisten your hands and scoop a handful of rice onto the seaweed. Press the rice to spread it evenly up to the edges, moistening your fingers as you go.
• Press the rice to spread it evenly up to the edges of the nori, moistening your fingers as you go.
• Using both hands, carefully flip the seaweed over and put the rice on the bottom.
• Scoop some cream cheese mixture and avocado onto the sushi roll.
• Roll the sushi away from you with your hands, tucking the insides as you go. Roll a little, then unroll and pull plastic away so it won't roll up into the sushi. Then roll again. Repeat that process until it is all rolled up!
• This makes 2 sushi rolls and feeds about 4 people.
• Cut the sushi into 6 pieces.
