# How to Make It:

01 - Rinse the sushi rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine rice and water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 12 to 15 minutes until water is absorbed, then let stand covered for 10 minutes.
02 - Combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Gently fold the mixture into the cooked rice for even flavor distribution. Allow rice to cool to room temperature.
03 - In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, and freshly grated ginger until emulsified.
04 - Divide the cooled sushi rice among four serving bowls. Top each portion with cooked shrimp, diced avocado, cucumber, julienned carrots, radish slices, and sliced scallions.
05 - Drizzle the soy dressing over each prepared bowl. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and nori strips. Add pickled ginger and a swirl of sriracha or chili mayo if desired. Serve immediately.
