Sushi

Friday, September 23rd, 2005

Yesterday evening we had Karo and nostromo as our guests for the evening. We prepared some sushi and maki together and sat talking until 01:30. The sushi was great, but there are some things to remember for next time:

  • don’t use Aceto Balsamico instead of normal vinegar, unless you like brown rice
  • don’t use too much wasabi as ‘glue’ on the sushi, especially if nostromo is a guest
  • 500g of rice is more than enough for 4 people, no need to prepare 630g
  • when cooking the rice according to the recipe, it would be good to put a lid on the pot. Otherwise the water’s gone too quickly
  • when forming sushi rolls, keep your hands wet (unless you like having that rice sticking on your hands and not forming a roll) and compress the rolls really tight. If not, they desintragrate too quickly
