Makizushi (sushi)

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Combine rice and 5-1/2 cups water in saucepan. (If using rice cooker,
continue as directed by rice cooker manufacturer.) Bring to boil over
high heat. Reduce heat, simmer 20 minutes, or until water is  absorbed.
Remove from heat; let stand, covered, 10 minutes.  Meanwhile, combine
vinegar, sugar and salt in small saucepan. Cook  and stir over low heat
until sugar and salt dissolve. Remove from  heat. Turn rice into large
non-metal bowl. Drizzle vinegar mixture  over rice and gently fold in
to combine. Heat lightly oiled skillet  over high heat. Add egg/water
mixture. Reduce heat to low; cook egg  until set. Turn egg onto cutting
surface. Cool and cut into thin  strips. Divide each egg, spinach and
makizushi-no-moto into 10 equal  portions. Unroll bamboo sushi mat away
from you on working surface.  Place 1 sheet Hime Sushinori on mat,
lining up short edge with bottom  of mat. Moisten hands with water.
Place about 1-1/2 cups rice mixture  on nori. Press rice to side and
bottom edges to cover 3/4 of the  nori, leaving edge of nore furthest
from you clear. Place 1 portion  each egg, spinach and
makizushi-no-moto left to right across center  of rice. Hold line of
ingredients across rice firmly in place with  fingertips. Using thumb,
push up and turn bamboo mat edge nearest you  up and over filling,
pressing firmly to enclose filling and lifting  bamboo mat while
rolling to keep free from enclosing in sushi roll.  Gently, but firmly,
press bamboo mat around roll to shape. (The art  to making makizushi is
to get filling ingredients lined up in center  of roll.) Unroll mat and
wrap sushi roll in plastic wrap; repeat with  remaining ingredients to
make 10 rolls. To serve, place rolls  seam-side down on cutting surface
and cut each, crosswise, into 8  equal slices. To store overnight,
cover wrapped sushi rolls with damp  towel and refrigerate. Makes 10
rolls.  HIME BRAND ROASTED SEAWEED  JFC INTERNATIONAL INC.  SAN

A Message from our Provider:

“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
