Sushi-California Rolls

Husband taught me how to make his favorite thing tonight..Sushi! He loves it I hate it, but it was still fun to learn how to make!



Ingredients:
1 package seaweed sheets (got mine at Smiths in the Asian Food Aisle)
1 package imitation crab legs
1 cucumber peeled and cut into long strips
2 cups cooked Calrose Rice-great for making sushi because of it's sticky texture
1 avocado also sliced into strips
1 Tbsp. rice vinegar
sugar
bowl of water
**bamboo sushi roller**

Directions:
Add rice vinegar to rice. Sprinkle with sugar. Stir and sprinkle with more sugar. Repeat one more time. If rice is still warm put in freezer until cooled off.

Lay sushi roller out flat. Top with one sheet of seaweed (rough side facing up) Dip fingers in bowl of water. Take rice and spread a thin layer across the whole sheet of seaweed. Lay a row of crab, avocado, and cucumber (all thin strips) across bottom of seaweed. Roll tightly with firm pressure. Remove from sushi mat and place seam side down. Wet knife and cut roll into about eight slices, wetting knife before each slice.
