Dear darling adorable daughter Donna, has a fascination with Japanese cooking. I bought a cookbook called Nobu that is all about Japanese cooking. Donna has decided that Today she will make Sushi for dinner. She has the sushi mat, the wooden rice paddle, the nori, the wasabi, the soy sauce, the yellowfin tuna and everything else to go into the roll. Cucumbers, Avocado, and rice. She starts the rice last night, washes the rice until the water runs clear just like it says in the book, and puts it into the rice cooker. It is MUSH. so we try again today. I make the rice the way I always do, it is perfect. (of course) she then mixes the vinegar and the sugar into the rice to make the sushi rice to roll into the nori. She has sliced the tuna thinly, she has sslsicied the veggies just so, and when she rolls the rice into the nori, it all falls apart. So there on the dinner plate is all the ingredients that are required, all in a heap. The roll fell totally apart when she cut it into slices.
She mananged to get two more rolls rolled and they looked really good, so That is the way she served them. Leaving it up to us to cut our own. I did. I cut it and put a tuna slice on mine, dipped it into the wasabi and the soy and almost died!! the Wasabi was a real sinus cleaner. It tasted Excellent once you got over the pain. Then she wanted to try eating it with chopsticks. oops. they dont make chopsticks for lefties. She cant pick anything up.
Poor baby, has two holes in her backside and her sushi failed. Actually it went really well taste wise. She just needs to work on her technique. I am sure she will master this also. She has managed to master so many things in her life. She is smart. She is driven. She is very patient. I would have had the entire mess turned into wallpaper in the dining room...I do love her. She even showed me how to post pictures.
Too bad it was the one with the bandit poop bigger than Sadie in it!! Sheesh
