Hubbies going out of town and my bff is coming over for saki & sushi night. So excited. Love me some sushi, but never made it, and must say it's a little intimidating. Just bought these online (jet.com, 15% introductory discount) and got everything for a pretty decent price. Will buy some fresh stuff the night of:
- Ricer Steamer (already had it)
- Rice Vinegar (already had it)
- Sesame Seeds (already had it)
- Edamame (already had it) - this is a side dish
- Sushi rice (small grain, sticky) - I've never bought small grain sushi rice, but if the goal is "sticky", my rice steamer sure makes some sticky basmati rice (which I have plenty of). I'll report back if this sushi rice is all that much different
- Bamboo rolling mat
- Nori (toasted seaweed rolls)
- Wasabi Paste
- Pickled Ginger Slices
- San-J Shoyu - wheat soy (this is seriously my favorite soy sauce on earth and it's just mild enough for sushi)
- Mayo (already had it)
- Sambal Oelek Pepper Sauce (already had it) - another favorite sauce on earth. Recipe for spicy mayo calls for Sriracha but this so SOOOO much better as a substitute
- Smoked Salmon
- Avocado
- Cucumber Ribbons (already had it)
- Carrot Ribbons
- Scallions (fresh from the garden)
- Roe (maybe)
- Raw Fish? (Ahi Tuna? or is smoked tuna enough?)
- Artificial Crab Meat? (california roll?)
- A few shrimp?
