Anyone make sushi?

[Lionfish Lair]

Would love to compare recipes, techniques and equipment :-)

I do once in awhile. I found out that what you pay at a sushi place is not so bad after all! And now I want sushi tonight!

 

[Wilsoni]

Oh man, you shouldn't have posted this @Lionfish Lair, I'm going to be craving sushi now... Haha

Torched Sablefish is TDF! Oh and Ceviche rolls... :p

 

[mushroomrob]

Is that where my fiddler crab went?

 

[Wilsoni]

What would you recommend to get started on learning to make rolls? A local class? Or are there any good online tutorials you would recommend?

 

[Chris-tico]

i don´t, but those looks delicious!!

my favorites down here in Costa rica are : Ceviche roll (regular california roll with "ceviche" on top of it)

looks like this

and another with strawberry inside. really surprising how good it is.

I add Mirin some adds Dashi when cooling the rice.

 

[Lionfish Lair]

I'm trying to get my vinegar/sugar/salt mixture down for the rice.

I don't make raw sushi at home. I wanted a trained chef assessing the fish before I eat it!

Well this puts mine to shame:( I'm not a raw fish kinda girl but I do love smoked eel.:D

If I seriously lived within a couple of hours of you, I would be there.

Wait you live like 1 min from the best Asian and Japanese stores in Cali. Not to mention the restaurants. I got in trouble with the Mrs and Mrs Jr. last week because I was on the 5 not the 405 to stop at the Super Daiso Market.

 

[Lionfish Lair]

But to sit down a talk sushi with a fellow reefer.... who had access to gobs and gobs of samples for me to try..... priceless.

I have made my own before but I prefer to sit an drink saki while Simone else makes them lol i don't like the sashimi or any of the raw fish kind I like the eel sauce it's yummy here is a pic of dinner last night

Spider roll : softshell crab roll

@X.M.Chen teach us how to make the yum yum or seafood sauce whatever you call it :-)

 

[Lionfish Lair]

That looks so delish.

I pretty much had a roll every night at work and now that I'm not working, I'm missing my fix.

 

[Pamela]

Ooooh boy, I have such a weak tummy that I can't eat any form of fish anymore without thinking about what's in my aquarium! And I know I'm a hypocrite, because I do eat meat.

 

[Lionfish Lair]

Sushi doesn't actually mean fish.

One of my favs is a crunch shrimp roll basically tempura shrimp with avacodo cucumber and surimi "imitation crab"

Do you use the wasabi?
