Step 3
After rinsing the rice, transfer it to a saucepan. Pour in clean water—the rice-to-water ratio is 1:1.5. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover with a lid, and cook for 20–25 minutes. In a separate small bowl, mix rice vinegar with salt and sugar. Pour the dressing over the cooked rice and stir to combine. Let the rice cool slightly.
