Maki Sushi recipes

Maki sushi is a term used to describe any type of rolled sushi. A sushi roll consists of a layer of vinegared sushi rice that is spread onto a toasted sheet of nori seaweed, filled with a variety of tasty ingredients, then carefully rolled into a cylinder and cut into smaller pieces.

Maki sushi comes in three different sizes. These are as follows:

	Thin rolls (hoso-maki) - This type of sushi roll is made using half a sheet of toasted nori, 1/2 cup of sushi rice and one ingredient. A thin sushi roll is the trickest kind to make and takes a lot of practice.
	Medium rolls (chu-maki) - This sushi roll uses an entire sheet of nori, a cup of sushi rice and two or three ingredients.
	Thick rolls (futo-maki) - This one is a biggie! A cup and a half of sushi rice is spread onto a full sheet of toasted nori and topped with four or more ingredients.
