For a richer flavor, consider using a high-quality Japanese rice vinegar. Adjust the sweetness and saltiness to your personal preference. Start with the recipe's measurements and then add more sugar or salt to taste. Make sure all the sugar and salt dissolved completely, otherwise it would affect the flavor of sushi rice.
