Sushi

The first time I had sushi, I thought it was gross. I hated the taste of raw fish and wasabi. I since have avoided sushi, until last week when I gave some vegetable sushi at a dinner party a try. It was delicious. So I decided to try making sushi. Vegetable sushi is safer than the raw fish type and super easy to make.

Supplies:

4 sheets of nori (dried seaweed)

                                                                   4 cups sushi rice
                                                                       1 cucumber
                                                                 Soy sauce, to serve

                                                                        sushi mat

First prepare rice based on packaging instructions. In the meantime peel the cucumber and slice into sticks.

Once everything is ready lay the nori out on a sushi mat (it helps keep them from sticking if you put plastic wrap between them).

Spread 1/2 cup of rice over the nori. It helps to have a small bowl of water nearby for washing your hands off.

lay the cucumbers down. Roll the sushi. Here is a great video on how to roll sushi. Cut in to bite sized pieces and serve with the soy sauce.
