This evening, I took the Metra out to the North Shore for dinner with the fam. Mom had prepped all of the ingredients for sushi rolls…and we introduced the “Highland Park Roll” (shrimp, japanese cucumber, carrot, scallion, avacado, ginger) at dinner. We used the rolling mats that came with a Sushi kit I gave the parentals for Christmas. Sushi…is not hard to make but there is definitely skill into making it look good. As long as you’ve got good sticky sushi rice and the nori (seaweed) sheets, you’re golden.
For reference, I’ve included these helpful videos from the mysterious Master Sushi Chef, He-Day:
He-Day is not afraid of The California Roll!
He-Day will enforce Proper Sushi Etiquette!
