The Great Sushi experiment

[felinaeus]

Tonight, I did something I never thought I would do.
Tonight, I accomplished something I am somewhat proud of.

I made sushi.

khydeeaunta and I went to go do groceries, and I had been tossing the idea around for a bit so we decided to get the fixings.
A nice guy at a fish store in the Jean-Talon market helped us with the right fish and such (seeing as he works at a *gasp* fish store), and then it began.

First, I made the rice. This took about an hour, after washing it first. Then it was the fish and the veggies (Is an avacado a vegetable?)
But we did it. And with these so very very pretty result:

Sushi of all kinds!	The last roll
khydeeaunta's Sushi came out very pretty	I, apparently, can't make "inside-out" sushi

All said and done, the experiment was successful, and will be replayed in the future.

[edit] Things to remember when making sushi:
-Rice is sticky
-Paper is brittle
-The Mat helps, but isn't needed
-Rice is sticky
-the cat will want some of the fish
-the first cut is the messiest
-The rice is still sticky
-The cat will still want some of the fish.

Yay!!!

yes me and Q had much fun trying this ourselves too. I think Avacado is a fruit because the seeds are on the inside of the eaty part not else where on the plant...

I've had my hands almost glued together from sushi making. It's fun, but messy. :)

The mats probably are more for preventing the meats from touching the table. Likely a sanitary thing.

Actually, they're to help with the rolling, but more for the inside-out sushi where the rice is on the outside.
