MHHH! That looks really good! Now...I think this way I could impress a very special girl...yeeeah. :-)
Thanks for that, it doesn`t look as complex as I thought!

By the way, what did she use for the outside "ply" of the roll? Algas?

Sushi is my fav. food on the planet. I'm very picky about my sushi too. I have never tried to make it myself and I think it would be fun to give it a shot. Your a lucky guy J... I need to show my wife this video.

Cool vid! Sushi is one of the most fun things to eat, especially with friends.



Makes me hungry......

I highly recommend the book, "The Connoiseur's Guide to Sushi", by Dave Lowry. It's a wonderful read on the history, terminology, and dining etiquette.

Nutha,
I worked at a sushi bar for a few years after my road days. Your wife did a great job. I have tried making my own, but it's been a bust every time (even after two years at the restaurant). I will give your sweetums recipe a try.

Thanks and cheers!
