Step 1
Cook the 2 cups sushi rice according to package directions, then let it cool slightly until warm but not hot, about 10 minutes.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the 3 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1 tsp salt until dissolved. Fold this into the warm rice, then let it cool to room temperature.
Step 3
Slice the 8 oz fish into thin strips about 1/2 inch wide. Cut each of the 4 nori sheets in half crosswise.
Step 4
Place a nori half on a bamboo mat or your palm. Spread a thin layer of rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch strip at the top edge. Lay a few fish strips across the center.
Step 5
Roll tightly from the bottom, using the bare nori edge to seal. Slice each roll into 6 pieces and serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger if you have them.
