Directions
Step 1
Combine the water and rice in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, or until rice is tender and water has been absorbed.
Step 2
Remove from the heat and stir in the vinegar and a pinch of salt. Set aside to cool.
Step 3
Cover a bamboo sushi mat with plastic wrap to keep the rice from sticking. Place a sheet of seaweed over the plastic.
Step 4
Spread rice evenly leaving a little space of seaweed at the bottom.
Step 5
Arrange strips of cucumber across the center of the rice.
Step 6
Lift the mat and roll over the vegetables once and press down.
Step 7
Unroll, then roll again towards the exposed end of the seaweed sheet to make a long roll. Wet with little water if needed.
Step 8
Use a sharp wet knife to slice the rolls into 5 or 6 slices. Serve cut side up with your favorite sushi condiments.
