In this master recipe, I am using only prawns, but try to include one or two more seafood varieties, such as tuna or salmon, to make your nigiri-zushi meal more colorful and flavorful.

Although it might be fun to emulate the graceful ballet that the sushi chef performs to make each nigiri-zushi, it is undoubtedly simpler for the home cook, who is not yet practiced in this art, simply to prepare, up to 1 hour before serving, as many rice balls as will be needed.
