Preparing the sushi rice

Begin with rinsing approximately 200-300 grams of sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Then, cook the rice as per package instructions until it's fluffy and sticky. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature before using it for sushi.

Preparing the fillings

Thinly slice raw salmon (50-100 grams), and prepare your choice of fillings, such as avocado slices, cucumber sticks, or tamago. Also, measure out approximately 30-60 grams of cream cheese, and keep ready the sesame seeds and soy sauce for glazing.

Assembling the sushi rolls

Place a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat. Gently spread a layer of sushi rice on top of the nori, leaving a small margin at the top. Place your fillings in a line at the bottom of the rice. Roll the nori tightly using the bamboo mat. Slice the roll into pieces, and optionally, glaze with a bit of soy sauce before serving.
