A few weeks ago, my friend Allison taught me how to make sushi. It was so fresh and delicious, I decided to try it on my own! I went to the store this morning to get all of my ingredients (I forgot to grab rice vinegar, but thankfully, my husband ran back out). Sushi rice is a little more complicated to cook, so I wanted to make sure to follow the recipe exactly.
I only planned on making one type of roll - my favorite, a Philly roll. It has smoked salmon, avocado, and cream cheese. From start to finish, it only took me about 1 hour to make two rolls, and they were amazing! The only thing I need to perfect is cooking the rice. I think I brought it to a boil too quickly, so it wasn't as soft as it should have been. But overall, I'm pretty proud of myself! :)

ReplyDeleteOh my, that looks so delicious. I've been craving sushi for days now. You just inspired me to just make it myself.
ReplyDeleteIt looks professional! Nice!
ReplyDeleteI am extremely impressed!!! I totally believe that making sushi rolls is much harder than it looks! Looks like you did good :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm VERY impressed! Joel and I always talk about needing to learn to make spicy tuna rolls because they are our favorite. I can't even make regular rice, though, so I know this is way out of my league!
