Sushi!

I made Sushi!! And no, sushi is NOT raw fish! It is simply Rice with fish. It can be raw, but...no thanks! I am the consummate picky eater, but this I loved. Ever time Don and I go out to eat, I pick only a handful of restaurants because I hate being disappointed. We went out with some friends, and they wanted to go to this Japanese restaurant. We went, but I wasn't excited. I did have sushi once before, and it was good, but not a favorite. This time I ordered the "Sexy Lady" which is lobster based. I LOVE IT. I went online, found a youtube video that had a "How To"  make it tutorial and the rest is history. IT is so easy!. You need  sushi rice,  it is cooked like regular rice only with less water.

   a sushi mat $1.99,

and stuff to go inside, I used Faux Crab, cream cheese, mushrooms and seedless Cucumbers.

You spread on the rice, add the toppings and roll!

You also need pickled ginger and seaweed. I did have to go to an oriental store for the best price on rice, the mat,seaweed and the pickled ginger.To my surprise, Seaweed is not gross- I thought is was before I tired it.

Here is the finished product. (This picture of the sushi and ginger the only picture that is mine!!) You place a piece of ginger onto the sushi and eat!!!!!!!!!! Yummy, Health and low calories too!
