Rice for rolls - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, but brown rice has a firmer texture and nuttier flavor. Adjust cooking time (usually 5-10 minutes longer) and add a bit more water.
Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days. The texture hardens over time - refresh with a splash of water when reheating.
Yes! Ensure your rice vinegar is gluten-free (most are). Avoid malt vinegar which contains gluten.
Try honey, maple syrup, or artificial sweeteners in equal amounts. Liquid sweeteners may require slight reduction adjustments.
Not recommended - freezing drastically changes the texture, making it crumbly when thawed.
Use a non-stick pan or well-seasoned cast iron, and avoid stirring once cooking begins.
1:1.25 ratio is ideal (1 cup rice to 1¼ cups water). Rinse rice thoroughly until water runs clear first.
Absolutely! The seasoned rice pairs perfectly with poke ingredients - just portion into bowls instead of rolling.
