I'm addicted!

Before you panic that I am addicted to something really bad... it isn't true! Rather, I am addicted to something good and healthy. I have recently (last couple of months) been introduced to Sushi and since this introduction I have enjoyed not only eating the stuff but preparing it myself... yummy. As a child I was never fed Sushi and probably because one straight away thinks that sushi means raw fish is involved (which is yuck). But my Canadian friends, who have a range of tastes due to the ethnic mix of people they have in Canada, have shown me that raw fish doesn't need to be involved in the making of sushi at all. So, it was on one of my visits to their house for a meal, when I was taught how to make sushi rolls (there is a special name for them but it is too early in the morning to recall this). We made vegetarian sushi rolls (mango, peppers, cucumber, carrot) and fish sushi rolls (same ingredients but with smoked salmon included), then cut them into bite-size bits and ate them. With chopsticks! Ha ha. And I didn't drop or flick any food across the room either (which I tend to do if trying to eat with chopsticks). A good experience and since then I have made sushi (using tuna and crabmeat as ingredients too - tuna good, crab meat not really) at home a number of times and have thoroughly enjoyed it. Remember though, if you try sushi, watch out for the Wasabi sauce... man that can blow your head off if you aren't careful. Definitely clears the sinuses too.
