Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

This is an easier version of the trickiest types of sushi to make.
2-3 tablespoon rice vinegar
250ml/8fl oz water
1 quantity prepared sushi rice
400g/14oz fish, preferably different types (eg tuna or salmon fillets)
Wasabi paste
First, holding your knife at a 45-degree angle, cut the fish fillets into diagonal slices, 5mm (1/4in) thick.
Mix the vinegar and water in a small bowl. Dip your hands in the mixture and pick up a ball of rice about the size of an egg. Gently roll it in the palm of your hands, shaping it into an oblong.
Place it on a clean work surface or chopping board. Prepare several more rice oblongs. Tidy up the shape if necessary but do not overhandle it.
Lay the toppings out next to each oblong of rice. Dab a little wasabi paste on each oblong. Lay the topping (slice of fish) on to each and press gently to keep it in place.
Avoid excessive handling of the fish, but use your thumb and forefinger to press the ends of the fish to the rice. Gently shape the sides of the rice and serve.
