A couple weeks ago we had an office party for a colleague who turned the big 4-0. One of her favorite things in the world is sushi. That's what we had for lunch. Since I'm trying to eat healthier and sushi is very healthy, I decided this would be an easy way to try it and test the waters.
I have to say I was a little overwhelmed with worlds like eel and roe. Honestly, I just tried salmon for the first time in the last year, I'm not really ready to jump into eating raw eel. I found a nice roll called the Tiger's Eye. It had smoked salmon, cream cheese and avocado. It sounded "safe."
It was not only safe, but delish. Every since I've been dying to have some more.
Which leads us, in a roundabout way to last night. I decided I would try my hand at sushi at home. I had all the ingredients to make a Tiger's Eye at home, so why not. The only think I was missing was that bamboo wrapping tool, but I figured since I was a novice anyway, might as well use some cling wrap.
And have my sous chef help me.
Look at that attention to detail. She's a natural.
They may have turned out a little messy, but they were good. I still think we're lightyears away from anything with roe on it.
