# How to Make It:
01 - Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine with water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then cover and simmer on low for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest, covered, for 10 minutes.
02 - In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold into the cooked rice. Allow to cool to room temperature.
03 - Place a bamboo sushi mat on a clean surface and cover with plastic wrap. Place a sheet of nori, shiny side down, on the mat.
04 - With wet hands, spread about ¾ cup of rice evenly over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
05 - Carefully flip the nori so the rice side is facing down.
06 - Arrange crab, avocado, and cucumber in a line along the bottom edge of the nori. Add a thin line of mayonnaise if using.
07 - Using the mat, tightly roll up the sushi away from you, pressing gently to shape. Seal the edge with a little water.
08 - With a sharp, damp knife, slice the roll into 6 pieces. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi.
