On, er, Last Night's Menu: sushi

Sushi moriawase

No ingredient list or prep instructions for this one.  I am still a pebble when it comes to the preparation of sushi.

Notes for future reference:  One cup of nishiki rice to 300ml of water worked well.  Mitsukan's bottled "seasoned rice vinegar for sushi" contains too much brown sugar and molasses, and imparts an undesirable brown tinge to the prepared sushi rice.  The rice is easier to work with more cooling time.  use a deeper fingerbolw for dipping when balling the rice.

Photographic evidence:

Left plate:  trailer-trash maki (fish sticks and tartar sauce)

back plate:  kappa-maki with cream cheese and avocado; salmon, cream cheese and avocado hand roll

Front plate:  ebi-nigiri with avocado, sake-nigiri with cream cheese

Left plate, clockwise from back corner:  ebi-nigiri, sake-nigiri, ahi-nigiri, nigiri with layered sake and ahi
