Home Made Sushi

It can take some time to develop the skill to roll the sushi neatly, but once you are there, it is unbelievably yum and a totally unique dish. Worth the effort!

If these pictures tempt you, google the numerous blogs and videos out there for the elaborate recipes. One small tip: The key thing is to make the rice perfectly sticky. As soon as the rice is cooked, place and compress it in a small plastic container, and let it rest for 30 minutes.

The basics - Japanese Rice, Japanese Soy Sauce (Low Sodium), Sushi Ginger (Ready-made/can be easily made at home), Nori - Sushi seaweed wrap, rice vinegar, and our home invented sushi roll bamboo mat - bamboo mat covered in cellophane! We don't use Wasabi based on our individual preference, but see if its pungent flavour suits your taste buds.
