-Lay one sheet of nori with the long side closest to you. Place one portion of the filling on one end of the nori sheet and spread it out to the side across the entire nori sheet, leaving about a 1/2 inch gap at the opposite end. Then gently roll the it up to the other end, finishing with an approximately 1 ½ inch roll. Seal with water at the end. Repeat with the rest of the nori sheets and filling.
