Master Gu's Sushi Chef Course 2

Welcome back to our Sushi Chef Course. In this class, our new task is rolling a perfect tuna hand roll. Our apprentices are ready for the class. And now we will introduce our master, Tani Gu.

First, I will introduce the materials we need for today's tuna hand roll: hori, rice, perilla leaf and tuna.

Before we start the class, remember the secret of making a perfect hand roll. Try to control the amount of rice - not too much and not too little.
