Preparing nigiri sushi is quite simple. You will need to dampen your hands with water. Dampening your hands is necessary every time you work with sushi rice, because it won’t stick to your hands, making the whole rice modeling process impossible. Take as much rice to fit in your palm (the size of a small egg) and mold it into a rectangular shape with rounded edges, with a length of approximately 5 cm. and height of 1,5 cm., while pressing the edges. You can roll the rice in your hand but don’t use too much pressure, as the final product shouldn’t lose the air accumulated between the rice grains.
