Earlier this week I went to a sushi-rolling lesson at CulinAerie that I’d purchased from LivingSocial. While I was disappointed that we only made veggie rolls, (I know, how is it considered sushi if there’s no raw fish?!) I did pick up a pointer or two, in addition to some neat sushi history!
Try to keep your hands wet while working with the rice… it’s called sticky rice for a reason.
Hold the ingredients carefully while folding over the seaweed… or else everything falls out.
Use a sharp knife to cut through the roll… but try not to cut off any fingers
Assemble rolls on plate with desired condiments. And if there are extra/ uneven pieces, just eat them… no one will notice
(Even the really messed up rolls taste delicious)
And voila! Be sure to take a picture to prove you made the sushi before you eat all of it



Oh, I’m impressed! Those look great!
