Re: Another sushi thread - how do YOU eat it?
 

speaking of fish. i have some delicious sushi grade salmon i'll be having today. $15/lb and well worth it. some premium rice. some custom sushi dressing made from high-end rice vinegar.

yum, at a fraction of the cost. but i don't bother making the rice balls for nigiri. just eat it as a don bowl.

PITTM:

YMMV, but generally the shoyu should accent the flavor of the fish. If the rice "absorbs it", it's tough to taste the fish.


Duke:

What punkass said - the only one I can think of offhand that gets served all over the place that might taste fishy would be saba (mackerel).

And by all means, avoid the mackeral.

Re: Another sushi thread - how do YOU eat it?
 

Take off the fish, submerge in soy sauce (w/ wasabi), place back on rice, eat.

I had a wonderful sushi lunch earlier today. I eat the rolls, especially the messier and fancier rolls with chopsticks. Nigiri I dip fish side into the soy sauce where I add a goodly amount of wasabi. I love wasabi. I'll sometimes also add wasabi plain to the sushi. Sashimi I also use chopsticks to eat.

Mackeral is one of my favorites, but my girlfriend wouldn't eat it, so I usually got double. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

So are my friends and I the only people in the world who eat it with chopsticks? I swear I have never seen anyone eat sushi with their hands.
