  • 1/4 tsp sesame oil

Sushi Rice

Rice Pizza Base

  1.  pre-heat oven to 400 F
  2. Gently fold the rice, sesame seeds, and egg together making sure not to squish the grains too much.
  3. Lightly oil a baking pan or oven stone with oil or use parchment or silicone pad on a baking pan to prevent sticking.
  4. Have a little bowl of cool water nearby to wet your hands before handling the rice.
  5. Divide the rice into 4 and using wet hands form rice balls that are 4 to 6 inches in diameter and gently flatten with your hands to about 1-inch-thick circles.
  6. Place on a baking pan or stone and bake for 15 to 20 min. Remove from oven and let cool.
