Prepare Your Tezu

Sushi Su, or Seasoned Rice Vinegar, is an integral part to the sushi making process.
It is the seasoning to the sushi rice, and gives the flavour another dimension. Sushi Su is pre-mixed with the all important sugar and salt so you can get straight to it.

Your first step is to prepare your vinegar-water solution called tezu.
Asian markets sell bottles of pre-made sushi vinegar(Marukan and Mitsukan are excellent), but making it yourself is quite easy.
You start with rice vinegar -- no other kind will work.
