Good post, but as a food safety instructor, let me add a note of caution. Letting the rice sit at room temperature puts it int the temperature danger zone where bacteria grows fast. You can do this, but it should not be out over 2 hours between 70 and 125 degrees. Longer than that and it becomes dangerous. Without temperature control, you must use time as a control. Restaurants must adhere to these rules under the FDA Food Code. The specific bacteria that grows is bacillus cereus and is commonly developed when rice and starchy foods are time and temperature abused. When you eat sushi you want to know they're handling the rice correctly, because as you note it is at room temperature. Again, two hours maximum until the time you eat it.


I love your recipe. You did lots of explaining about handling the rice that I have not seen on other sites. You also told us how to make it without using lots of equipment that we would have to buy. Thanks for the recipe. I have tried some simular with a spicy mayo and a sushi sauce drizzled on an inside out sushi roll - yummy. Does anyone have a recipe for the Spicy Mayo or the Sushi Sauce? The Sushi Sauce is Dark Brown but clear like and spicy as well as sweet, and the Spice Mayo is pink.
