sushi rice
Seasoned Japanese starch
Sushi rice is short-grain Japanese rice seasoned with vinegar, sugar, and salt, used as the base for sushi.
The seasoning gives it a slightly sweet-tart flavor, and the starch content makes it sticky enough to hold shape when formed into rolls or topped with fish.
She fanned the sushi rice as she folded in the vinegar mixture.
