Nigiri Sushi of Recent Article

Making sushi at home is cheap and fun !

Because my husband is a sushi chef he has sushi's skill.
He grabs a handful of rice, a piece of fish, a small amount of horseradish and in a flash he makes one sushi.

He is a professional and has years of practice and his rolls, sushi, and sashimi come out perfectly.

If your hope isn't a sushi of beautiful shape, making sushi at home isn't as hard as it would seem.
The sushi made at home is cheaper than going out and can be quite fun.

You can make the sushi from your favorite fish and vegetable.
(It is possible even by a hamburger steak, a sausage, a fruit and other processed foods. )

 

I asked my husband to make the sushi slowly. (There is a scene from which my husband slowly makes the sushi in the video by intention.)
If you observe the scene many times, you will be able to understand the form to make the sushi somehow.

 

This web page explains how to make sushi in detail.

Please refer.

 

 

"Nigiri zushi" that is the most popular sushi

The sushi that my husband is making in this video is a sushi of the type that is called most popular "にぎり寿司[Nigiri zushi]".

Nigiri zushi is bundles of rice, topped with wasabi and fish.
If a sushi is complemented with the slice of raw fish or prawns, it is called Nigiri zushi.

醤油(shouyu) [Soy sauce] is widely used with Nigiri sushi.

There is a possibility of crumbling when depending on the kind of sushi-neta (sliced raw fish and vegetable, etc.) on rice though Nigiri zushi should be taken by the fingers and dipped fish-side only into soy sauce.
For that case, you should eat putting a small amount of soy sauce directly to rice.

By the way, I cannot make the sushi of beautiful shape though I make the sushi often receiving his guidance.
(The sushi that I make is distorted, and the size is sparse. )

"The knack to make the sushi of beautiful shape quickly has only the method of your learning it with your own palmar sense."
My husband always says to me so.
But, the sushi that you made will be a very delicious sushi for you.

This is a kitchen of my house.

My husband is a craftsman of sushi with 20 years or more of experience.
He makes sushi sometimes in this way at home for me.

The rice used for sushi is called "Shari".

 

 

 

The rice used for sushi is boiled with a rice cooker.

 

There are many kinds of rice cookers in Japan !

This rice cooker is very excellent.
The rice cooker always boils delicious rice.
But, I have made a mistake in the amount of water on this day.
Boiled rice was somewhat harder.
For my mistake, he was not able to make sushi as always.

To tell the truth, I am very careless.
But, the sushi that he had made for me on this day was very delicious.
