How to prepare it step by step?

Preparation

2. For sushi rolls, place a nori sheet on a mat, shiny side down. Spread a 1 cm layer of rice, leaving a free edge.
3. Spread a thin layer of Japanese mayonnaise over the rice.
4. Add fillings such as tuna, cucumber, or shrimp.
5. Roll using the mat, applying pressure to maintain a compact roll. Moisten the edge to seal it.
6. Cut the roll into equal portions using a wet knife.
7. For pressed sushi, line a mold with plastic wrap and place a layer of smoked salmon.
8. Cover with rice, press firmly, and fold the film. Use another can to press again if necessary.
9. Unmold and cut into rectangular portions.
10. For sushi balls, place a small portion of rice on plastic wrap, add filling, and form a tight ball using the wrap.
11. Remove the film and serve immediately with soy sauce or wasabi.
