Sorry, I saw that Liels posted in LOLpics. So, naturally I was dead to the world for about 15 minutes.
Anyway, I actually have taken certain precautions to this whole ordeal. I got myself a hangiri already, and I had planned on preparing the rice by getting rid of all the extra starch then covering it with a solution of vinegar, sugar and salt. I am going to try my hand at making a California Roll, but the thing I think I'll be focusing on the most is the nigiri-zushi.
The only thing I'm really worried about is the freshness of the fish. I live in a desert, so fresh fish is hard to come by. I've found this grocery store in the Chinese Cultural Center out here. In fact, they were the only place that carries tuna of any sort. It's yellowfin, but I figure that's close enough. But I've already got my rice, wasabi, rice wine vinegar, mayonnaise and the nori as well as my bamboo rollers, knife set, hangiri and shamoji. I'm gonna try and do this legitimately. There's so much tradition that comes with sushi, so I figure if I use the right stuff, it'll hopefully be decent enough.

Dont feel bad if you have to cook the fish due to that whole living in the desert.

If it comes to that, I just might. I doubt I'd be able to use it to make nigiri-zushi, but I'm sure no one would notice if I use it in maki-zushi. I'll check with the butchers at the grocery store to see how fresh it is.
Also, I have plenty of imitation crab, so that might be enough. It has a ton of sodium in it, though...

But I mean like avocados and then with crab meat or some mix. I would probably check out restaurants and see what type of rolls they make so you can get a good idea how each one is made.
Yeah, I got this instruction guide on how to make sushi with recipes as well as a few cooking shows, online suggestions and an instructional dvd. I've been doing my homework. For instance, my California Roll would have imitation crab, cucumber, avocado, cream cheese, japanese mayonnaise and pickled radish. And of course I have my pickled ginger and wasabi on the side.
I'm definitely not going blind into this. This has kinda been a long time coming.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
