I buy my seaweed at the Asian market though I have seen it in regular grocery stores. You take 1/2c rice vinegar, 4 Tbsp. sugar and 1.5 tsp salt and mix all of that together.
Make 4 cups (dry...cook according to directions) of sushi or Japanese rice (calrose) none of that Uncle Ben's stuff . Pour the "sushi-su" into the rice and mix well. Let cool.
Take your seaweed and bamboo mat if you have one (not neccessary though), take a cup of your rice and press it into the seaweed leaving about 1/2" of seaweed "empty" to seal. Press well as that will adhere the rice to the seaweed. It takes practice and your first few rolls may look a little scary but they taste good no matter how scary they look!
Roll with your favorite stuff...I love wasabi and soy sauce. Ooh..I have a couple of rolls in my fridge. I think I will eat them for lunch!
I am half Korean but we lived in Japan a hundred years ago when I was a baby until I was nine. In my heart I am a Japanese girl!
If you can't find a bamboo mat, let me know and I will get you one.
Now you know why I use the "grin" Graemlin...it has eyes like mine!
