STEP BY STEP
- Start by gathering, preparing and measuring all of the ingredients. This will improve your dynamic in the kitchen.
SUSHI RICE
- Rinse the rice in a strainer or fine mesh sieve until the water runs clear.
- Combine rice with water in a medium pot.
- Bring to the boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and allow to cook, unstirred, for 20 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, take off the lid and cover the pot with a clean kitchen cloth. Allow to rest for 5 minutes.
- Transfer the rice to a wooden bowl, spread it out with a wooden spoon (do not use metal utensils at this point) and allow to cool down until it's cool enough to handle.
- Drizzle the sushi rice vinegar mix over the rice and mix gently, making sure all the rice is coated with the seasonings.
TOFU CREAM CHEESE
- Add all of the ingredients, except for the capers, to a high-speed blender or food processor and blend until perfectly combined and smooth.
- Transfer to a bowl (preferably chilled) and fold in the chopped capers.
- Keep the tofu cream cheese in the fridge while preparing the the other ingredients.
