Unagi roll sushi

Nov 23, 2009 6 Comments by

After my first attempt making sushi two weeks ago, I had another attempt but failed miserably last week. It turned out that the rice was too dry and after I cut the sushi roll the rice fell apart immediately and crumble. The sushi roll was still yummy though but I didn’t took any pictures of them.

So after taking notes on the rice, I made another attempt. I added unagi and tobiko for making unagi sushi roll. Basically it’s the same as California roll with addition of unagi slice and using tobiko to cover the sushi rice. Here’s the picture after I cut the roll but before I flip them up. I still need practice more since the roll went flat (it was in good round shape before the cut) after I cut it.

I also think that I put too much tobiko on the rice, but it look quite okay after I arrange those rolls and flip them up. So this is the end of my sushi adventure for today, hope that next week I can practice more.

      Thanks Lil’chan, I always wanted to master the art of sushi making someday so I set my expectation like the good sushi chef standard.
      I’m always grateful for everything I have but a person need to aim high in order to improve him/herself, cheers ^_^

    They look really great! I haven’t figured out how to roll with the rice on the outside successfully!

      Thanks Angi, you should put the nori first on sushi mat, put the rice on top of nori, and flip them over, then put the fillings on top of nori and roll it. Need some practice though ^_^

    I agree! This maki is super! I’m wishing I could eat the whole thing up by myself :)
