OMG OMG OMG!!! THANK YOU!! I Have struggled with making PERFECT sushi rice - both in instant pot and on stove top - followed these steps EXACTLY. My rice has NEVER been this perfect. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
Just discovered. So many aspects about this video I loved. Your realness as you described yourself, the explanations were detailed including a why, and your personality/voice are amazing. Looking forward to making some rice this week!
Better to soak the rice first for an hour, and then start the rinsing process. The presoak allows the rice to soak up maximum water, making it fluffier, and making the 1:1 water ratio even more accurate. Rinse not just once or twice, but at least 3 times, and until the water is clear - which it is not in the video.
I had to try this at 1am because I was hungry and I have been wanting to find a way to cook sushi rice in the Instant Pot. The results were perfect, my rice was made following your instructions and I am now enjoying it as I write this comment. I love the way it came out and am very happy, thank you for posting this video. = )
I have a very old LUX-60 model from 2014, just wanted to say the rice is still absolutely perfect at the preset setting. Thank you very much for the recipe
My neighbours were Japanese, and introduced me to Japanese food. I've been hooked on it ever since. I am new to your channel, and look forward to trying all of your recipes. Great presentation, great video. Thank you.
Just made this, and hoo boy it was GOOD. Perfect fluff, perfect flavor! Looking forward to a rice-filled week! I'd love to try it with the soy reduction but the logistics of getting some ingredients here in the middle of nowhere are complex.
Thank you so much for this video! My first attempt at sushi rice was a mushy mess. I followed you step by step and my second attempt came out perfectly!
I have been making this sushi rice since Covid when I decided to learn how to make sushi. OMG - it is the best!!! I make regular sushi and also sushi bowls and everyone loves it. Great for a weekday meal and for company on a weekend. Enjoy!!!
Absolutely amazing!! I followed the washing, measuring seasoning and venting to the ‘T’ especially for 4 cups of sushi rice. But soak the washed rice for an hour like one person suggested above 👆🏾. And we had perfectly fluffy cooked rice. Thank you SO much. 🙏🏾💫🤍
I don't have InstantPot but this vid has good tips for cooking rice whether using InstantPot or rice cooker. I use an inexpensive rice cooker with 304 stainless steel pot - used to have a non-stick, but they eventually flake...the stainless is easy to clean by hand or dishwasher.
If it's for just 1 or 2 people go with the 3 qt. I've had the 6, 8 and 3 and I'm happier with the 3 qt. Found myself not using the full size one because I over cooked quantity and was eating the same thing for ages.
Hi Helen, thank you for this recipe and instructions. I made it today for a sushi dinner with my wife and it was marvelous. We were craving for some sushi but we did not want to eat raw food from outside given the circumstances right now.
I actually bought a high-end Japanese rice cooker but returned it after realizing that all the rice cookers have non-stick coating inner pots which is a big NO for me. I'll stick with the stainless steel Instapots. Plus, your rice came out very nice so that's all I need.
This was really helpful! I live in Brooklyn and we have an amazing sushi-grade fish market in my neighborhood, Osakana BK. We're making a chirashi bowl tonight and will use this rice recipe with our instant pot to do so!
@@Shortyriri I haven't seen Unagi there, no! Typically if you want good eel, you'll have to pay for it. I try to stay clear of Eel and Tuna these days even though I adore them, mostly due to terrible farming practices w/ Eels & overfishing (read: 99% of the eel you get on the market is "dirty" pumped filled with chemicals and farmed in deplorable conditions in places with lax rules about this sort of thing), and fresh non farmed eel is endangered.
I need to thank you so much! I rarely leave comments here on UA-cam, but O.M.G this is the perfect recipe!!! Thank you! I used the rice both to make sushi and poke bowls and it works perfectly! It tastes absolutely identical to sushi bars and restaurants...thank you 😍
Thanks for this. I was always using normal long grain rice for sushi. I’m giving Japanese rice a try! Also your voice is amazingly soothing! You should do ASMR cooking videos!
My favourite rice brand so far has been Yumenishiki. I just looked up what variety of rice it is, and indeed - koshihikari. It is rather expensive, though. Might be time to look for other brands of similar rice.
Helen my dear, where have you been all my life? This video is so helpful! Goodbye sticky rice and hello perfect sushi rice! My poke bowls have been so much more enjoyable because of you! Thank you!
Thanks for the tips. Some videos tell you equal parts rice to water but I found that it wasn’t enough water. Plus I now know how to use the delay start button which I never used before.
Another awesome video explained perfectly. I have the same IP, but will be in search of the specific ingredients. And I don't believe you can say this method works with ANY rice cooker. I have a cheap old Black+Decker Rice Cooker Plus that has 2 settings, on and keep warm. I would not make it in that as the bottom tends to get dry and sometimes a bit of brown. But as to the RAW SALMON, why on earth does anyone eat RAW salmon? What's the benefit?
Great tips, thank you. I'll have to see how well Swerve sweetener works in place of white sugar. If I make the rice for rolls or bowls, how to I store any leftover rice? I'm the only one who eats it. Oh and where do you buy your salmon? Can I use the Costco Wild Sockeye? I use this fish to ferment with spices, whey and salt water but haven't eaten it raw on rice.
I wouldn't eat wild sockeye raw. once you cure it, it might freeze ok, but left to its own devices is turns to mush after freezing, and without freezing it's a very serious parasite risk. If you are in the boston area, The New Deal Fish market in Cambridge or Captain Marden's in Wellesley have excellent farmed salmon. If you are looking for a national chain, they can be inconsistent, but Wegman's has EU organic salmon that's usually very good and works fine in raw dishes.
unfortunately sushi rice doesn't keep too well, but if you have to use leftovers, here is what I would do. Don't dress any rice that you are not going to eat right away. Cool rice to room temp and store covered in the fridge. To rewarm, cover it with a damp paper towel and put in a microwave until hot. serve as is or dress with the vinegar solution. the vinegar solution can be stored indefinitely. might be easier to make a batch and splash a bit on your rice each time you serve.
just for clarification, all i have to do is click the rice button? Will it automatically know to go to 12 mins if I"m going with 1.5 cups rice? I dont need to move it to 12 mins?
I'm starting to watch the video. At first I thought, oh no, you're not Asian. Then it shows a picture of your sushi rice. Oh you can make good rice though! This is soo good! You are so thorough. Best video! ❤❤❤. So knowledgeable. Fuiyoh!!! I'm subscribing!
How do you prepare the sushi rice the morning before breakfast.. do you put it on auto cook the night before so that it cooks in the morning or did you put the rice and water in the instant pot the night before and in the morning turn it on?
Hello Helen I have a pressure cooker and a slow cooker or maybe it's called a crock pot in America. Just wondering if I should buy the instant cooker that you use. Thank you in advance.
Hi Helen, im Anastasia and new to your channel. Thanks for this video! I grew up in erie pa with a wegmans loved that store! Ive always wanted to learn how to make sushi rice! Thanks again!
Hi Helen, can I use Calrose rice as a sushi rice? Will this method work for this rice? I bought 15 lb bag ( don’t ask me why???) and need to use it. Thank you!
If you have a proper Japanese-style rice cooker, you just measure out the rice with the included cup then fill to the line with the number of cups you used. I thought there was no other way for it to be this easy, but I guess I was wrong. It seems you can use a 1:1 ratio as if you were doing it sous vide with a pressure cooker since it's sealed. Nice!
@@wellivea1 Most rice cookers you need to wait anyway, some of the fancy Japanese rice cookers program in the wait time. So it's not really a hassle more of a human conditional thing. When the instapot beeps you need to wait another 10 - 15 minutes. The fancy rice cooker will just turn off for 15 - 20 minutes and then beep or sing a song Japanese stuff is strange that way. So one says it's ready but you need to wait 15 minutes = annoyed person. The other just takes 15 minutes longer and then says it's ready = happy human.
And one more question about rice vinegar. All people say so different ratios of vinegar. What is different if i use too little or too much of vinegar ?❤
QUESTION~!! The rice was great. I also made some "bacon" mushrooms, and avocado to go inside, but the sushi wrap went all gummy on me. Not sure what I did wrong. This is the first time I've ever done sushi. Is there a way to keep the wrap a little more crisp-ish?
Helen, can you tell us more about slicing, freezing and keeping salmon - any tips? When do you unfreeze it? For how long? Any other considerations? Thank you! #realcomment
amazing video, really! i will say though, please do not pour the rice vinegar into the metal bowl. while it does save you time, it can react badly with the metal. try emptying it out onto a ceramic, wooden, or plastic bowl first.
Y'know, I was watching Kitchen Nightmares, and I saw you uploaded. Helen Rennie > Gordon Ramsay, tbh. Especially since I've had some pretty sad attempts at sushi rice previously. You've definitely got one of the top 3 cooking channels on UA-cam as far as I'm concerned. I just wish I could pick your brain on basically every little detail of everything I cook, but I guess that's what your classes are for! One day. :)
#realcomment Hi Helen, for your soy reduction squeeze bottle, I noticed you are using plastic wrap to seal it. Do you not trust the little red caps that sometimes come with the bottles? Thanks for all the great info you pass on!
Hello, I have the 6qt lux. The rice button says 10 minutes not 12. I just went with it and will see what happens. This is my first time making sticky rice. Will it be okay?
lux is a low end model without low pressure, so they do rice on high pressure for 10 min, which is way too long. try 5 min on high pressure with natural release
whatever works :) the default rice setting on my instant pot is low pressure and I hear that's how rice cookers do it. since it works, I haven't messed around with high pressure.
@@helenrennie oh, gotcha. Yes, the default setting is low at 12 minutes, but most rice experiments I've seen say high pressure works better. I haven't specifically messed with sushi rice, but regular white basmati rice is 4 minutes on high with 10-12 minutes natural release.
I’ve used the high pressure setting for sushi rice and got poor results. For other rice absolutely use high pressure. However for sushi rice definitely do low pressure, I’ve tried it and it came out amazing! :)
How easy is this pot to clean? I'm confident the insert is a breeze; what about the rest? A lot of kitchen gadgets are easy to use but a pain to clean. I have a old style pressure cooker that can be fully disassembled for cleaning, all the new ones I've been looking at have too many plastic parts (that don't come off).
I uses the product Bar Keeper's Friend powder to clean the Instant Pot stainless pot. You can see your reflection on the bottom the pot after cleaning.
I love how watching these videos makes me feel like a small child being taught by my favourite teacher. So calming.

Thank you…it gives me confidence
I did this and it came out absolute perfection!, thank you so much for such clear instructions and such perfect rice 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have a special rice washer strainer I bought from Japan. Works pretty good. Would highly recommend it to anyone that makes rice on a regular basis.
I just one bought form Amazon thanks 😊

100% agree with this. Washing the rice four or five times is key as is the soak.
Thank you….I thought we should rinse before soaking
Soaked rice first one hour and I think the rice absorbed too much water. I will not soak it next time.
@@samcyam soaking make rice sooo much better. ..reduce water if it was wet
What i hear from other shefs that soaking before rinsing is not good. Because all starches will come back to the rice. So first rince after soak❤
Thank you for the clarification of weight when it comes to measuring. Makes such a huge difference!

Very good recipe i used 0.75 cup of rice and divide by 2 all the other components and it turned out perfect
Just made this, and hoo boy it was GOOD. Perfect fluff, perfect flavor! Looking forward to a rice-filled week! I'd love to try it with the soy reduction but the logistics of getting some ingredients here in the middle of nowhere are complex.

I enjoy your work a little more than your awesome accent. Thank you for both.
50 pound bag of California grown Non GMO Sushi Rice is Excellent and priced very well

Same type of rice, also from Wegman's; so much better than any rice I've had at a Sushi Bar!
Hi Helen thank you for the thorough explanation, unfortunately I do not have rice vinegar on hand could I use apple cider instead ?
I would use a bit less apple cider vinegar since it's more sour.
Omg, thank you so much ! My Japanese rice it's perfect now!

Although I think the waiting for the pressure to go down, etc makes it just a little bit more of a hassle, having one less appliance is nice.

So sushi rice is a sticky rice if I'm correct. How do you use the instapot to make a more fluffy rice for something like red beans and rice?
Que buen video. Explica todo perfectamente.
You must live in a place with tasty tap water.
Excellent video. Thank you!
Rice-Water ratio 01:52
Cooking time table 05:20

Thank you so much for this video!
And one more question about rice vinegar. All people say so different ratios of vinegar. What is different if i use too little or too much of vinegar ?❤
Helen! I resonate with you so much! "I am also a lazy bum when it comes to breakfast". Lol!
Would have to taste it and determine if it is truly Japanese sticky rice.
My favorite brand of rice is Nishiki
Just to let everyone know. Jiro the iirc first 3 michellen stared Sushi restaurant makes rice using a pressure cooker too - albeit a larger one.
QUESTION~!! The rice was great. I also made some "bacon" mushrooms, and avocado to go inside, but the sushi wrap went all gummy on me. Not sure what I did wrong. This is the first time I've ever done sushi. Is there a way to keep the wrap a little more crisp-ish?
The rice layer needs to be very thin and the roll should be rolled, sliced and eaten immediately. otherwise, the nori gets soggy.
#realcomment - Helen! It really works! I've been having such a hard time coming up with the right method for the Instant Pot. This is perfect.
Yay! so glad it worked for you
Your voice is sooooooo relaxinggg 😍
Thank you so much this is just perfect
rice comes out better under pressure cooking texture!
how to keep the sushi rice moist for whole day?
Do you know if this brand of rice good for making Spam Musubi?
Awesome 👍🏾 Thank you! 💞
Helen, can you tell us more about slicing, freezing and keeping salmon - any tips? When do you unfreeze it? For how long? Any other considerations? Thank you! #realcomment
Here is a video that explains it: ua-cam.com/video/62L_uqk26KE/v-deo.html
amazing video, really! i will say though, please do not pour the rice vinegar into the metal bowl. while it does save you time, it can react badly with the metal. try emptying it out onto a ceramic, wooden, or plastic bowl first.
it's a stainless steel bowl. I promise it's completely non-reactive :)
@@helenrennie okay sweet! one of my roommates ended up messing up one of our metal pans doing that before!
Be careful adding the sugar, I thought 25g was too sweet and wish I had maybe only added 10-15g vs. 25g of sugar (which is 5 teaspoons! 😬)
Y'know, I was watching Kitchen Nightmares, and I saw you uploaded. Helen Rennie > Gordon Ramsay, tbh. Especially since I've had some pretty sad attempts at sushi rice previously. You've definitely got one of the top 3 cooking channels on UA-cam as far as I'm concerned.

What a pleasant person. I’m new here. ♥️
#realcomment Hi Helen, for your soy reduction squeeze bottle, I noticed you are using plastic wrap to seal it. Do you not trust the little red caps that sometimes come with the bottles? Thanks for all the great info you pass on!
Mine didn't come with the caps. if you have caps, use them.
so beautiful, thank you love
#realcomment Hi Helen! In your first sushi rice video, you heated the seasoning vinegar before adding it to the rice. Does it make a difference?
i don't think it makes a difference as long as the sugar dissolves. time and stirring works as well as heat.
Does this work for Jasmine rice as well since its a 1:1 ratio? Can you make a video using Instant pot and showing Jasmine and Basmati rice?
My cooking procedure for jasmine and basmati are exactly the same as for sushi rice, but I skip the sushi vinegar.
I just found you. Im so glad i did!!
Have you tried this method with sweet short grain rice?
Hello, I have the 6qt lux. The rice button says 10 minutes not 12. I just went with it and will see what happens. This is my first time making sticky rice. Will it be okay?

Great video
My rice keeps coming out way too sticky and I wash it 6-7 times.
How easy is this pot to clean? I'm confident the insert is a breeze; what about the rest? A lot of kitchen gadgets are easy to use but a pain to clean. I have a old style pressure cooker that can be fully disassembled for cleaning, all the new ones I've been looking at have too many plastic parts (that don't come off).
insert is easy to clean. The lid just needs a rinse since it doesn't touch the food. I don't clean the outside of the pot.
I uses the product Bar Keeper's Friend powder to clean the Instant Pot stainless pot. You can see your reflection on the bottom the pot after cleaning.
I like rice
