sushi rice

ingredients:
1 C rice
1 T rice wine vinegar
1 T white sugar
pinch of salt (~1/8 t(?))

process:
rinse the rice several times.
drain pretty well.
add 1.5 C water.
bring to boil, reduce to low, 20 minutes (don't ever remove top).
remove from heat, let sit 10 minutes covered.

mix vinegar, sugar, and salt.

put rice in large (plastic) bowl, toss around a little to let cool.
add mix to rice, fold in.

this makes enough rice for sushi for 3-4 people and should be used in the sushi.
since it is so wet and sticky, leftover rice is not very good for fried rice.
