Inari Sushi

If you've been wanting to try making or serving sushi to someone, this is one recipe to try.  For most people, there are at least two stereotypes holding you/them back:
  • Sushi has raw fish: False!  Sushi is just vinegared rice.  The fish is optional.
  • Sushi is expensive and difficult to make: Sometimes.  It depends on the ingredients you choose.  This recipe was ultra cheap, and uses a minimum of ingredients.
I thought about writing out my recipe, but there are so many that you can google on your own, and half the fun is experimenting with what works for you.  Me, I chose to leave out the Mirin sauce (we don't have any in the house).  I bought he aburaage tofu pouches in the frozen section of Super China market in Sandy (fast becoming a favorite spot on my map) for less than two dollars. 
Making Inari is a little labor intensive, but a lot of fun.  It took no coaxing whatsoever to get our girls to try them.  They are very filling.  We ate just these and some veggies on the side.  
Itadakimas!
