Nigiri Sushi At Home

I wanted to eat some nigiri sushi! I made this at my family's request. If you use an empty egg carton as a "mold" for your rice, it's surprisingly simple to make everything the same size!

Please thoroughly wash the egg carton before use. You should use enough sushi rice to fill up to the top of the bottom layer of the carton. I think that's the ideal amount. Two rice cooker cups will make about 25 pieces, but you can make them bigger or smaller if you like. Please use any toppings you like. Recipe by shoken mama
