Sushi Party

Since the day I experienced the magic of Japanese cuisine for the firs time in New York, especially Sushi, I just fell in love with it and have been waiting for a chance to make it myself.
We decided to make it today and went to a supermarket to buy groceries. We decided to make ordinary rolls filled with smoked salmon ( I wanted to go with raw fish, but since I had company, I didn't want to gamble, so at least all the ingredients were edible) , avocado and smoked tofu. We managed to find everything we needed in a near supermarket, so we were all settled to make our first sushi.

The most important part is to prepare the rice right. It takes about an hour to do so including cooking and cooling along with the procedure in between. Another hard part is rolling the stuff right, and the first few tries didn't turn out right, bits falling off, Nori seaweed not sticking well etc... But since there was so much rice and filling, as we went on, we got the hang of it and the result was excellent.


After we finished with the preparation, the feast could begin. We drank some Rosemount Road Red which was a tremendous choice to go with it. Fe managed to finish the first plate and were full before we could start with the other one, so I have leftovers for tomorrow. Another thing was that my mom sent me some Apple Pie made with brown sugar. I wanted to try just one piece, but the taste was so good that the the final number was a dozen. I am so stuffed right now that it is a miracle that I am even writing this right now . I'm dozy and I should probably go to sleep, but am reluctant to do so because the Rocky Horror Picture Show is playing on TV later this night.
