  1. I've never used seasoned rice vinegar. I prefer to make my own sushi su. A trick I want to share is using a blow dryer on cool setting while mixing it gently. Comes out perfect every time and the rice is ready to use within minutes.
     
  2. Do not use regular, medium grain rice, I found it not sticky and the vinegar taste was overpowering.
     
  3. Great recipe, rice turned out perfect.
     
  4. Super quick and simple. The rice turned out great for my California Rolls! Thanks!
     
  5. Super easy and lovely way of making sushi rice! Make sure you use seasoned rice vinegar, as it totally makes a difference ;]
