I make sushi from scratch every Saturday. It all started with a make-your-own-sushi-kit birthday present from my wonderful sister. Each time, I make my favorite classics: Spicy Tuna Roll, Philadelphia Roll, 49ers Roll. I also make two or three experimental rolls. Some are flops, but very few become classics in their own right.

Saturday, October 1, 2011

Today's Sushi was more about substance than form. We had the usuals: Philadelphia Roll, 49ers, and the Tuna Pesto returned. The Mushroom Cilantro Roll wasn't as good as last week because I tried Portobello mushrooms instead of Shiitake mushrooms. The Sushi in the second picture has a piece of Portobello topped with thinly sliced, fried garlic.

The third picture shows the Seattle Roll (my version of a vegetarian Philadelphia Roll for my vegetarian roommate) and the Mushroom Crunch Roll, which was ok.

The special roll of the day (fourth picture) was Indian Summer Roll (potatoes, Masala sauce, spices, carrots and peas). It was delicious, and one to keep.

We also had the Superstar Roll (banana, peanut butter, dark chocolate) for dessert, not pictured here.
