Hands On Temaki Sushii

I had my first experience of making sushii. Yoku and her friends, decided to teach us the simpler Temaki sushii, improvised with Nato since we wanted to try nato so much.

The ingredients we bought for Temaki Sushii


Mix the sushinoko into the rice. We used the koshihikari...


Above is Nato. Many foreigners have a bad impression of nato, saying that it smells bad. I do not think so after trying it. Just like durian, you either like it or you don't. Nato is fermented soy beans. The texture is like Alien vs Predator saliva as shown in the cinema. It's a bit disgusting when you open the package and stir it up (just as shown in the photo). But Japanese love Nato because of it's health benefits...

Ingredients spreaded over the table...

First dose of nato onto the temaki sushii

Yumi, showing the way to wrap and eat it....


My first own-made temaki sushii, learning from the best...

Nagaoka



Made a brief stopover at Nagaoka on the way back to Niigata from Urasa. Konan had his friends to bring us around the town. It is not as big as Niigata but definitely more happening than Urasa.
