Simple Rolled Sushi

Nigiri sushi is not a homemade food in Japan. Sushi chefs spend many years learning about the fish, how to make sushi rice, and mastering the techniques for the best piece of nigiri (bite-sized piece of fish-topped sushi rice). But some simple types of sushi are made at home. Hosomaki—a “thin” roll—is a long roll of sushi rice with various fillings wrapped in a crisp nori sheet.
