Ingredients
- 2 cups sushi rice, rinsed well and soaked for 30 minutes
- 1 corn on the cob
- 2 1/4 cups water
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 piece dried kombu
- sesame oil or butter, for serving
Here's how to make it:
- Cut the kernels off the cob into a bowl. Using a knife, scrape the cob to release the corn milk into the bowl. Do not throw away the cob.
- Drain the rice and put it into a large pot. Add the water, soy sauce and salt, to taste. Stir to combine.
- Put the corn, corn cob, corn milk and dried kombu on top of the rice. Press gently to submerge it in the water. Cover the pot, bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook about 6 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking for about 15 more minutes. Remove from the heat and let the rice sit, covered, for about 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, open the pot and remove the cob and kombu (you can throw it away). Fluff the rice. Serve with butter or sesame oil.
