Who <3s sushi?

[patrick_irwin]

I have a favorite place. Never sat down at the bar tho (only a few seats). We always go with a lot of people so we just get a table. I wouldn't mind trying cat either lol



Those look tasty nom nom nom

ok i thought about this last night. if you want to try an assortment of raw fish to extend your taste pallet. get a mitsuwa bowl


its still a form of sushi, just no seaweed or soy paper

Try it. The hardest part by FAR is making of the rice and it being quality. I have made sushi 3 times. I also all 3 times bought way too much stuff... and ended up with WAY too much extra. It wasn't pretty but I made it happen. First attempt:

Dinan:

If you're going to do ebi nigiri, it's best to butterfly the shrimp before you cook, so they lay on top of the nigiri more easily.

Your nigiri rice balls look really good, are you hand-forming or using a mold? If by hand, that's very tough to get right, so you're owning shit if that's how you're making them. Rolls look very neat. Do you have a single-sided sushi knife? If not, get one, your fish/roll cuts will be 100x cleaner. Sushi Knives (Kataba) are only sharpened on one side and flat on the other, unlike a Western chef's knife.


When I make sushi, I stick to Chirashi or Oshi-Zushi. I know how to do rolls, but they can be a pain, and I'm too lazy to make Nigiri. I'll make Onigiri and bring them to work though, usually with shiozake inside.

Hand formed the balls actually. Problem for me was getting them equal sized. Would have some monster rice balls sometimes!

You can see the knife in picture 2. It is as you described. Flat and sharp on the other side. It is not of tip top quality though. It did work.

I butchered the ebi... that is for sure!

Thanks for the compliments. I need to make an attempt again. Would be try 4 or 5 now. I didn't take photos of the last couple. Only the first.

I love sushi, but alas even the best places here in Nashville are only so-so compared to the places I've eaten on the west coast and when I was in asia.
