Sushi Rice Short Grain Sticky Rice for Sushi Making

Sushi rice is a short-grain or medium-grain rice specially cultivated for making sushi. It has a sticky texture when cooked, which allows it to hold together, making it perfect for rolls, nigiri, and other sushi preparations. Traditionally, sushi rice is seasoned with a mixture of rice vinegar, sugar, and salt to give it a slightly sweet and tangy flavor that complements raw fish, vegetables, and seaweed.
