How to create the perfect spicy salmon roll

Rolling sushi may seem intimidating at first, but with a bit of practice and the right technique, you’ll be a sushi pro. Follow these simple steps:

1. Slice the ingredients: Cut the salmon, avocado, and cucumber into thin, manageable strips. Remember, smaller pieces make rolling easier.
2. Prepare the nori: Lay the nori sheet shiny-side down and evenly spread half a cup of rice over it, leaving a border for sealing.
3. Layer the ingredients: Arrange the salmon, avocado, and cucumber along the side of the nori closest to you.
4. Roll it up: Tuck in the ingredients tightly and seal the roll.

With each attempt, your sushi-making skills will improve. And even if your roll isn’t perfect, the taste will be great, the process will be fun, and the satisfaction will be undeniable.
