Equipment

Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup sushi rice
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 2 tablespoons seasoning for sushi rice

Instructions
 

  • Rinse the rice in cold water 4-5 times to expel the excess starch on the rice. Drain it well.
  • Pour the rice and the cold water into the Instant Pot. Stir to break up any clumps.
  • Close and lock the lid, set the vent to sealing. Press the pressure cook button and set the time to 4 minutes. When done, allow a 5 minute pressure release before manually releasing the remaining pressure.
  • Open the lid and fluff the rice with a spatula. Transfer the rice to a glass or plastic bowl. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.
  • Evenly distribute the sushi vinegar in to the rice and “cut” it into the rice with a spatula.
