OT The Sushi Thread

I had never tried sushi....until I met my wife, She's, like, 100% full-bore into the stuff. Me? The jury is still out. Maybe it's just the "rawness" of the concept. Dunno.

Anyway, those of you who are sold on sushi, sell me (the novice) on something worthy of trying.

Thanks in advance.

 

Sorry, meant for OT.

 

Spider and spicy California rolls are my top two.

 

I was told that California rolls were for us beginner types.

 

Get a shrimp tempura roll. Fully cooked.

 

Uni....you have to try the sea urchin roe!(this is my go to suggestion for sushi virgins)

 

Bluefin Tuna

 

unagi.....another great one....marinated eel over rice wrapped with a seaweed band

 

blasphemy!

 

you just made Anthony Bourdain roll over in his grave...he hated nothing more than westernized versions of sushi...he devoted an episode to that and talked about why you shouldn't make a sushi roll out of western sandwich fixings..he called it his main pet peeve in cullinary trends

 

The Slydog pizza....a flour tortilla with a slice of Velveeta cheese and some diced cold hot dogs on top sitting on a bed of Heinz Ketchup!

 

Westernized sushi is dope. Usually Koreans making the fusion.

 

yuck....I love sushi but please keep the fried chicken out of it

 

Should have kept this in the main forum

 

I really want ABM to sink his teeth into some raw sea urchin roe....would make my day! He wants to try sushi...don't give him Arby's sushi or the Taco Bell roll!

 

Sushi is great, anything with tempura is good. Dragon roll is the bomb. Also they usually have chicken katsu at sushi places and that is great too.

 

katsu is a breaded pork chop. katsu don is a pork chop over rice...Katsu don is a great meal...I love it
