Sushi night at home :D

Who needs to go out to eat when you know how to cook! I love the fact that it is cheaper do stuff yourself, espically if you learn the skill of cooking. No you don't have to be a professional at cooking but it is nice to know the basics so when it comes time to cooking something in your day, it won't be a stressful thing but a fun thing. Today I was hanging out with my boyfriend at home and we had DIY sushi making :D. It turned out great and we had a lot of fun!California style sushi with tomago, salmon and cucumber sprinkled with toasted seasame seeds.

Tomago recipe:
3 eggs
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoon sugar

1)Whisk the eggs really well and then add the sugar and soy sauce.
2) Heat your non-stick pan on medium to low heat and add a generous amount of oil to the pan.
3) Pour a light amount of egg onto pan and swirl the egg around the pan to let it cook. Flip it and let it cook for a little bit and start to layer.
4) Roll the egg gently from one side to the other. Don't break it! Turn off the heat.
5) Put egg into plastic wrap. The egg should be in a roll. Wrap the plastic wrap and cover the egg. This will continue cooking the egg on the inside and also give it the shape.
6) Cut it up into half an 1 cm thick pieces or however you want.

So that's it and it only took about and hour or too. We were watching food network too so we kind of got distracted.

Word of advice when making sushi:
-Cover the whole seaweed sheet with rice
-Leave an inch of space from the top of the seaweed so when you roll it, the sushi will seal properly
-Pack the rice so that it won't be all loosey goosey
-Don't put wayyy too much rice. Put about 3 mm of rice and spread it real good :D.
