What to do to make the rice stick together?
Reading time - 3 minutes.
For sushi and rolls, take special rice, which has the property of sticking together. But what if you bought the wrong rice, overexposed the rice in a saucepan, or didn't soak it before cooking? - In this case, the rice may turn out to be crumbly, but you can still save the situation. So, a list of ways "incrementally". If the first method doesn't help, try the next one.
1. Add rice vinegar - rice, absorbing it, slightly swells and becomes sticky.
2. Add sweetened boiling water to hot rice, stir and leave to swell for 20 minutes.
3. Cook rice for sushi again: buy exactly round glutinous rice for sushi or rolls, without rinsing, soak in water for half an hour, boil in a ratio of 1 part of rice: 1.5 parts of water over low heat and after boiling, be sure to insist for 10 minutes and hot use rice for modeling (cold is worse).
