“I will go with donman's recipe....not too sure about the side effects of CMB's method.”

“why, someone you want to send to hell? ;-) actually, you could do veggie sushi without dying...that's the best kind anyway.”

“there's this great recipe for fried sushi, i can't remember what it was, but we cleaned the fish and fried them over the fire... not bad”

“oh yeah! i guess if you actually caught the fish, you prolly wouldn't die. i was thinking of packing it in. packed-in fish would be better used as a lovely perfume. yum! ;-P”

“fried sushi??????”

“is that like melted ice?”

“uh huh... lol, fried sushi is more like...

synthetic natural gas

yeah... it's one of them moron things... them ones that morons can't figure out, like... military intelegince, that's a bad one... damn oxymorons”

“You could always do seviche, and just marinate your fish in lemon and lime juices and spices for serveral hours. That kills the parasites and chemically cooks the fish.”

“1 freeze dried egg (cooked)
1 c freeze dried cooked rice
1 c freeze dried wasabi
1 t soy sauce (packet)
freeze dried ginger
sesame seeds (optional)

Roll egg and wasabi into roll. Cut into sushi pieces. Place in ziplock bag. Add water to rehydrate. Remove. Serve with soy sauce and ginger. YUM”

“Biz, I prefer nori myself, you are one tough gal.”

“No kidding, old timer... Straight Wasabi and rice... Oh yeah, that'll clear/fry them sinuses.”

“for the record I'm not the biggest sushi fan. But, when I do sushi it's about the whole experience. Sitting at the bar, drinking copious amounts of sake and sapporo, interacting with the sushi chefs, and selecting the freshest stuff that sounds interesting to me. I guess Phaedrus meant this thread as a joke, so I'm kinda just putting my .02 in (yes, again). But if you really consider catching fish and eating them raw why do you bother to treat your water?”

“note to self: be cautious in accepting a California Roll from biz.....

wasabi and rice.......whohoo.....talk about tears in the eyes..”

“Yeah, and look at that recipe. She's talkin about using 1 CUP of DRIED wasabi.


Be very very afraid.”

“p.s. I haven't tried this recipe, let me know how it is!

:P”

“Why wait? I'll tell you right now:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIGH! (simulated response)”

“Where I come from, we call that bait.”

“You bait fish with wasabi? What do you catch, blowfish?”

“Works better than dynamite. Just dump wasabi in the water and the fish float to the top.
Hey, maybe we could give tbp a wasabi enema...”

“It's not like enough crap doesn't come out of the guy already.”

“Nothing a little lithium wouldn't fix.”

“Has anyone ever ordered the egg sushi?

I don't get it. Is that like the poor man's sushi? Why is it even on the menu??”

“Biz, It's there to give the impression of a good, wholesome breakfast. The Bacon sushi is traditional to follow it, along with hash brown and gravy sushi. Try it!”

“Oh, I thought maybe it was for vegetarians.”

“(Muffled laughter)”

“All this talk of fish is makeing me want to eat!!!!!

“If it smells like fish, eat it!”

“If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck...
EAT IT!”

“Yeah, Biz, duck is good...hmmm, not sure what you're saying here. Not sure I want to know, either.”

“I like duck also and for that matter any game bird!

“i dunno”

“Thats good that ya don't know what you are saying!

Hheheheh!!!!!

“Happens to me all the time. And CRS, senior moments, etc. Now that I'm losing my hair, I think my brainwaves are escaping into the atmosphere (gee, maybe that could be one of the causes of global warming).”

“sushi actually means, "served with rice" not raw meat...

as for wasabi, that is some potent #&%!$! I LIKE IT! Moooohaha!”

“But I thought raw meat is good!

“RE: escaping brain waves..

Have ya tried the tin foil hats? They not only reduced leakage but keep the aliens from reading your mind as well.”

“Naw, I've found that interferes with the voices in my head...”

“Egg sushi is very tasty if done right. I used to eat it when I was a little kid and wouldn't eat the fish.

Sunny is right (of course). The raw fish is called sashimi when you eat it alone. Sushi refers to the specially treated rice, the rice doesn't even have to be packed together to be called sushi.”

“Wasabi!

I dunno! Wasabi widda You?”

“We were going to make some California rolls on the last Llama trip, but we got separated before we could.

It is very doable. You just have to get creative with the filling.

Cook sushi rice (medium size sushi rice - don't use just any rice) - 1 cup rice to 1 cup water. Add 1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar per cup rice. Mix gently to fold in vinegar.

Spread thin layer of sushi rice over 1/2 sheet of nori (seaweed paper). Sprinkle on sesame seeds.

Turn over on sushi mat and put in filling. You could use avocado, cucumber, and for meat filling use canned tuna or filleted trout cooked in soy sauce.

Roll into a log and squeeze together with sushi mat.

Slice and serve with soy sauce and wasabi.

I took a one-night course on how to make sushi a couple of weeks ago and the instructor said you can put anything in a sushi roll. She said that, believe-it-or- not, Spam makes pretty good sushi at home.

Another variation with trout I would like to try is to cook some trout and add some chili sauce. Let it sit for a while and then use it as a filling.

I would also consider taking some canned crab meat and mayonnaise packets to mix up for filling.

Don't do this near your tent or get it all over your clothes. That could attract critters you don't want in the middle of the night.

I hope to try this one day...maybe on one of Mel's summer adventures.”

“SPAM SUSHI?!?!?!?!!!!!


Okay, there is no reason to get vulgar.

(shudder)”

“Yummy, I want to go!”

“Biz, if you're willing to eat spam sushi, you must be pretty popular.”

“Spam Sushi! Oh god! I have to make some and serve it to my pretentious friends and not tell them!”
