Cooking tips

For best results, spread the rice over the entire surface of the nori, leaving small "margins." This will help the rice adhere better and prevent the rolls from falling apart.

When slicing cucumber for rolls, peel and remove the seeds. Leave only the hard outer part. This will ensure a more uniform, crispy cucumber that won't spill juices into the rolls.

It's best to use fresh salmon and slice it thinly yourself, but for simplicity, you can also use lightly salted salmon from the store.
