Snyder ,'Empty Places'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
You seal the ends of the wrapper with rice vinegar (I think - it's been a while)
Water.
The most important thing is using a really sharp clean knife to slice it -- the knife gets gummed up after just a few cuts, and if it's dull, you crush rather than slicing. Other than that, it's easy and you get the feel of it after just a few rolls. Rolling a joint is much harder to get right, IME, and there are happy cheery how-to-roll-maki tutorials all over the intarwebs.
The key to home made sushi? A really, really sharp knife, and a towel soaked in hot water. That sticky rice makes clean neat slicing a challenge! I like to marinate some carrots in rice vinegar, water, and a little sugar for a couple hours beforehand. So very nom. Mmmmm, now i want sushi!
Sits in the really-likes-sharp-knives corner with the lovely erin_o.
I am getting all interested in making home-made sushi now!
You realise this means I will whine at The Girl to make it, on account of how I'm not allowed near kitchen utensils, yes?
Mmm. I could get some really good salmon. We live near an actual fishmonger...
Yesterday I played Texas Hold 'Em with my new neighbors. I hadn't played in years. I was this close to losing all my chips after a few rounds, but I had one big, lucky win, and from then on, I cleaned up. I had little idea what I was doing, but hey, it was fun.
Good to hear it's a good place. I know nothing about American hospitals/clinics, but I know they used to live in Houston and they go back for their medical treatment because they consider it the best in the world.
Definitely. Ranked #1 in cancer care in the U.S.
I did a research program there the summer before college. I studied XIAP and ERK2 as predictors of survival in chronic myelogenous leukemia.
(Though this is cone style sushi instead of a roll. As a plus, it has a poodle.)
Mmmmm. Poodle sushi.

aHA! I think that this was my main issue when I made it. They weren't round or clean, and it distressed me.
will probably run out to get sushi now.
