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!
