Elliot love sushi,the only and one Asian food he like.He rarely eat my Asian cooking specially the hot and spicy one.So I will try to make sushi for him once in a blue moon.I 'm not an expert but try my best to make the sushi rice stick to seaweed sheet without breaking it while rolling it to make a maki.I prefer to use Kirby than cucumber but since cucumber is season now and is very cheap too,why not?.I bought sushi rice premix vinegar and Japanese made mayonnaise from food market.It's much easy and more authentic. I add a little bit if everything into the roll.Cream cheese,fish stick(kani),avocado,fry egg(tamago),cucumber,Salmon(sake),steam shrimp(ebi),fish egg(tobiko/masago) ,seaweed wrap(wakeme)and sesame seeds.Mostly all my Japanese ingredients bought from asian supermarket in NYC.JFC jfc is the largest suppiler for Japanese food product in North America.They supply their products throughout all the Japanese restaurants in the nation.

I will marinated my fresh salmon for an hour into apple cider vinegar mix with salt first to kill the bacteria and remove the fishy smell.I learn this from a Malaysian chef who own a Japanese restaurant in Brooklyn.Anyway,it's up to individual preference.Not every chef want to that,too much trouble and work.

Look at my unskilled maki..Look so pathetic!!.I prefer to use less rice since Elliot don't like to eat too much rice.Eventually,he will eat it ,he said the look doesn't matter.He is happy with the meal I make him,that matter.He even give me an compliment!!..He keep telling his friend that I make him a fantastic sushi!!..hahaha!!...I think it's time I have to ask him to buy me a new digital camera!!
