How to make sushi...the easy way

Hi folks...this is news right? Yes, we know how to make sushi now...kembang kan? I have told the 30ths siblings...cuma news to other readers. I think you guys should know by now that I love japanese.....food...japanese food not japanese guy...:) I love japanese so much that i just cant get enough with sushi.... me and aimran, macam tak kenyang kenyang everytime we indulge ourselves. That is how the urge to learn sushi making came about.

We saw once or twice in AFC, and googled. It is as easy as ABC. Sushi by definition is vinegared rice...so the rice is mixed with rice vinegar...simple kan? We use japanese rice...cook it like we usual do with 3:2 water/rice ratio. Once cooked...you thoroughly mix the rice with rice vinegar, the ratio is 1:4---a quarter lah....must use wooden ladle...Anyway i dont use rice vinegar but using apple cider vinegar instead...cant find rice vinegar, but apple cider taste good with the rice though.
then the sea weed...it comes in different sizes pack so you choose and just wrap the rice and whatever fillings you like. The wrapping is a bit tricky but you will improve after some practice. We dont own the bamboo mat used for sushi wrapping...to date we still cant find one...so we use our own hands. Useful tips...to maintain the crispyness of the sea weed, you have to ensure the sea weed is always dry...but you got to wet your palm to roll the rice...so one hand for each...requires skill huh...tak lah susah ....as i said earlier...you'll improve with practice..


And wallah...you have your sushi....impressive huh?Kata aje lah ya...ha..ha...best part of this whole sushi making process, is the bonding with my sayang-sayang...this is DIY..so it always so.... huru hara
