Nori
point1
Here we use nori, which is seaweed dried in paper-like form. The smooth and glossy side is the front and the side with rough surface is the back. When spreading the sushi rice and fillings, place the nori with front side facing down so that it is visible on the outside of the sushi roll.
How to roll sushi
point1
Hold the filling and roll firmly, but stop before rolling all the way. Remove the bamboo rolling blind that is inside the roll, place it overtop of the sushi and then start rolling again to the end. Hold the sushi tightly over the rolling blind to firmly form the shape.
