Prepared Sushi Rice
It is best to make sushi rice in a rice cooker. Most rice cookers come with a small rice measuring cup. This rice measuring cup correlates with the water lines on the rice cooker. One full rice measuring cup will correspond to the “1” line on the rice cooker. It is a Japanese measuring cup. The full rice cup is equivalent to 180 millilitres, while a standard U.S. cup measure is 240 millilitres. If you lost the rice measuring cup, use .75 of a regular measuring cup to match the lines on the rice cooker.
