My favourite sushi place has been closed for renovations (paid for off my back, I'm sure) for almost two months now, so I've been forced to make my own sushi.
My first attempt was an unagi roll, which really didn't look all that bad for a first try. And it tasted fab. If I do say so myself.
Second attempt was a California roll. Which looked passable and tasted like an orgy in my mouth. To quote Stewie.
Third try was a teriyaki chicken roll. Divine. Made my own teriyaki sauce and decided to use brown rice instead of sushi rice, as I have no love for the white grain. Yummy good, but needed a spoon to eat it. Brown rice not the smartest idea and definitely not an accepted sushi accompaniment, but so much better for you.
Tonight's attempt was a spicy salmon roll with salmon sashimi. I have to tell you - I'm a genius. Rolled pretty tight and tasted so so good.
I may never go back to that restaurant! Do renos will you? For two whole months? Take that!

that's the way to stick it to the man! The man being whoever decided to close for renos.
Many props to you for being able to make your own sushi. I've never tried, but I don't think I could do it. I'm not so good with rice.
That sushi looks amazing! Nice work!
