  • 0.66666668653488 cup water
  • 3 sheets nori (dry seaweed), cut into 1-inch strips
  • seasoned sesame seeds to taste
  • shiso with hijiki (dried seaweed flakes) to taste
Instructions:
  • In a heavy-bottomed pot with a tight-fitting lid, soak rice in water for 20 to 30 minutes. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then lower heat and cook for 12 to 13 minutes until water is absorbed. Remove from heat, steam covered for another 10 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature for about 20 minutes before serving.
