- ▢ mixing spoon
- ▢ measuring cups and spoons
- ▢ Crockpot

Ingredients
- ▢ Sushi rice - 1 cup
- ▢ Water - 1¼ cup
- ▢ Rice Wine Vinegar - 2½ Tbsp
- ▢ Organic Coconut Palm Sugar - ½Tbsp
- ▢ Himalayan Pink Salt - ½ tsp
Instructions
Sushi Dressing
- Gather all ingredients and cooking equipment.
- Add the rice wine vinegar, coconut sugar, and Himalayan pink salt to a small bowl and stir until dissolved.
Sushi Rice
- Rinse and drain sushi rice well. Water should be clear and not cloudy.
- Add the rinsed sushi rice to the crock pot and cook using the rice, high pressure, and high temperature settings. The rice will take about 12-15 minutes to cook (depending on your crockpot abilities).
- Once complete, allow the rice to sit for 10 minutes.
- Fold the sushi dressing in the rice and use immediately.
Notes
- the sushi rice will be very sticky once the dressing is added
- if you cannot use the sushi rice immediately then place a damp cloth over the mouth of the pan or container for no more than 2 hours. This keeps the sushi from drying out
- fold in the sushi dressing instead of mixing or stirring helps keep the rice firm and not mushy
