Posted on June 30th, 2009. Filed under: General.Sushi is a wonderful tasting Japanese meal that everybody has heard of, and of course tasted as well. And if you are lucky, you have tasted at wonderful Sushi restaurant Temecula.
It is a great traditional meal that consists of rice, seaweed and the famous ingredient, raw fish.
Now if you don’t like fish in the first place, of course you will not like sushi.But if you are a seafood lover, then you can bet you will enjoy sushi.
Of course, most sushi is enjoyed in fine restaurants such as the one you can find at Sushi restaurant Lake Elsinore. You can enjoy them in small fast food type of Japanese restaurants.
Or you can enjoy them in more formal dining environments, like the one found at Sushi Restaurant Hemet.
Or the best way, you can eat to your heart's content with the all you can eat style.
But if you are in an adventorous mood, you might even want to give it a go and make some at home.
Now here is a quick rundown of sushi and it's 3 types that you can make.
First type is the Maki sushi. It is the usual that you are used to that consists of fish/seafood with rice that is then wrapped in nori or seaweed.Most well known is the California roll of course
Now the Maki sushi does contain two different types within it.There is the Futomaki also known as the "fat maki" because you make it with 2 or more fillings of fish or seafood
Second is the Hosomaki or also called the "thin maki" made up of only one filling inside of fish or seafood.But it can also just be one vegetable as well.
Next is the second type of sushi that is called the Nigiri sushi.This is another crowd favorite type of sushi which is a thin slice of raw fish placed on top of a chunk of rice that is rectangular. There is nothing
that wraps it up such as seaweed, like the Maki sushi.
Last but not least you have the Uramaki, which is the inside out fish as it is commonly referred to. It is called inside out, because it is sort of the backwards version of the Maki, in the sense that the rice is on the outside with the nori on the inside.Also what you will find inside will be fish or a seafood.
There you go.3 great types of sushi you can give it a go at making it from home.
Of course, the best way to make this is to first try some at a local sushi restaurant so you can sample all 3 different styles and see how it is made and what the ingredients are.
So enjoy eating.
