Buy Indigo® pH test strips for your sushi rice acidic pH range preparation, only $7.95 for 50 strips.
The biggest cause of foodborne illness in sushi rice is contamination by harmful bacteria found on raw fish. Sushi rice is typically kept at room temperature which promotes bacterial growth. To prevent cross contamination, acidify the rice with vinegar to lower its pH. Test strips help ensure you've added enough vinegar to achieve a safe level of pH 4.5 or less. This will limit the growth of pathogenic bacteria associated with serious health risks.
Color chart intervals: 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0
Intervals of 0.5 pH unit but can resolve 0.25 with practice
Dip strip, shake off excess liquid, compare to color chart immediately

Needed an easy way to check my materials for canning, especially my tomato sauces. These test strips saved me a lot of trouble since I didn't have to add any special acid to them after I discovered that mine were perfect at pH4.0. THis very simple test saved me a lot of money and i'm very happy with the product

Great news & an excellent example of how to use a test strip to make preparing tomato sauce & salsa easier. This old blog might be of some interest to others: How Does Litmus Paper Work? Not Like pH Strips?.
