We made sushi last night! My husband and I sat at the kitchen island while our son directed us in the fine art of sushi rolling. It was entertaining, and of course, satisfying to sample the wonderful rolls we made. They were delicious in spite of the fact that I couldn’t get mine rolled “quite right.” (We can rule out sushi chef as a potential career.)
A learning experience. I didn’t know you rolled the Nori on a mat. I didn’t know that said seaweed was “scored” lightly to help you cut the rolls. I didn’t realize you needed special rice, and that the rice vinegar was just exactly that – vinegar to season the rice! Silly me. I’ve been appreciating sushi without understanding its production, or knowing that our son is so accomplished in that realm.
The next new trick? Maybe I’ll learn to use my broiler pan properly. Or the angel food cake mold. Or the silicon cake pan mold. Or the 50 tips that came with my cake decorating kit. Opportunities abound.
From Blue Hawk to Sushi we’ve covered your recent entertainment. Many Thanks Rene Still working on the lost package. Love, June
P.S. Eagerly await 2nd son’s arrival.
