Some suggestions for those participating in the Roogle Riesling tasting

Free Sushi Booklet – Download a free, printable sushi instruction booklet with techniques, sushi recipes, step by step photos, a recipe for brown sushi rice, and much more.

Some form of sushi with crab is what I highly suggest. But it’s not the only thing that will pair well with this wine. Want some thing fun and eclectic? Try one of these recipes to accompany your Roogle Riesling.  See the Sushi Recipe Index for more recipes.

Also, Jennifer Biggs will be featuring a video on her blog that shows her method for assembling a California “bowl” where the elements of a California roll are used to make chirashi zushi, or scattered sushi.

Something I like to do is make Martini Chirashi – sushi in a glass! It’s quick and very easy. All you need is a fresh batch of sushi rice and whatever toppings your enjoy most.  In the picture below, I began by placing a bit of masago fish roe in the glass. Then, I topped it with a bed of sushi rice. To finish, I arranged 3 pieces of yellowfin tuna, 3 pieces of albacore tuna, more masago, some thinly sliced cucumbers and shredded daikon on top. The beauty of using a martini glass is that you can see all of the pretty layers through the glass. You can use any of your favorite toppings such as shrimp, scallops, pickled vegetables, etc to customize your very own sushi in a glass.
