If you want to go sustainable and feel good about protecting the ocean from fish being overcaught, this is one of the ways to go. Nothing gets killed…well, fruits can grow back from the tree or the plant, so they are not killed. It doesn’t say in the video, but the rice you want to use is Jasmine rice. It brings out a perfect flavor when you add coconut milk to it. You can be creative with other fruits as well such as strawberry, orange, kiwi, or grapes.
By the way, the person in the video has beautiful hands. Thanks for sharing!

I’m not a big fan of any sushi with cream cheese, but since the Philly roll is so popular, I respect it. Imitation crab is a good low calorie ingredient for sushi, but to honor the American tradition, you need to add fat to your diet. That’s where the cream cheese and the mayo come in and play an important role. I love the simple easy-to-follow instructions. This is probably a good starter if you are making sushi for the first time. It is so easy to make, you cannot go wrong.

Mr. Alton Brown did it again. If you want to enter the world of sushi making, this video probably covers it all. It is incredibly informative as well as entertaining. Alton demonstrates how to make sushi with all the key points on how to buy and slice sushi grade fish while giving you a history lesson on how sushi was born in Japan.

I usually let sushi chefs do all the work when it comes to making sushi as I don’t have much patience to learn, but other than nigiri, sushi rolls such as cucumber rolls or California rolls are pretty simple and easy to make. You can also be creative and make your own using whatever the leftover you have in your fridge. Avocado and cucumber are great ingredients to use because they create great combinations with many other ingredients. Imitation crab, fish cakes, egg, spam, you name it.

You don’t need to understand Japanese. Just watch the video. This young man’s creative improvisation is amazing at making sushi. If there’s a will, there’s a way. The PSP case seem to hold a little bit too much rice, but who cares. Look at the size of the mackerel. It’s a hungry man’s invention. Make sure and yell “Heierrr..” when you close the case. It brings out an excitement for what is about to reveal.

Just because Gordon Ramsay is a celebrity chef, that does not mean he is good at everything he lays his hands on. When it comes to sushi making, it is a league of its own. If you ever lived in Japan, you know that you don’t find sushi at a typical restaurant where it serves Japanese foods. You go to a sushi restaurant where you know you are served top quality sushi by a highly skilled chef. If you want to become a sushi chef, in a typical scenario, you start out by working under a sushi master as an apprentice, provided that he sees you have potential. Traditionally an apprentice used to do multiple chores from doing dishes and cleaning to running errands. During the course of these menial tasks, the master determines if you have what it takes to become a sushi chef and if you are lucky, he lets you use a sushi knife for the first time after five to ten years. It’s sort of like an army boot camp.
Anybody can make sushi, but to learn subtlety of everything involves in making sushi, you have to become an art.
