sushi
Krissy Warren
by Journal Staff Writer
Sushi is one of the most popular Japanese
foods outside of Japan. I’ll admit that at
first sushi looks a little questionable. My
first taste was of a California roll and I was
immediately hooked!
I recommend getting your feet wet with a
California roll. It is the most Americanized
of the sushi. As a matter of fact, most people
in Japan have never heard of a California
roll. It’s prepared “inside out” with the
rice on the outside instead of the nori (dried
seaweed) in an effort (I think) to make the
roll look more appealing. Americans are
more familiar with the look of rice. Inside
the roll is avocado, cucumber, crab meat,
and mayonnaise.
Once I realized I liked the California
roll, there was no stopping me. If I’m at a
Japanese restaurant, I prefer to order rolls.
Most places have a plate that is served with
a variety of rools so you can sample and
figure out what you like. I’ve noticed that
most Japanese restaurants that specialize
in sushi will tailor a specific roll to the city
or town, i.e. the Perry roll, which I assume
denotes that that particular roll has been
more popular with the people of the area.
More recently, I have branched out to the
raw sushi. Each piece of raw fish is laid
over sticky rice with a tiny bit of wasabi in
between. I like the pieces with salmon or
tuna. I have not yet developed a taste for
the firmer, almost rubbery texture of pieces
like octopus.
For those of you who are totally confused
by a sushi menu, www.eatsushi.com has a
glossary that will decode all those Japanese
words. Tuna and salmon may sound unin
viting when called Akami or Ikura, as peo
ple tend to be turned off by the unknown.
I am not a sushi expert, but some places
I enjoy to eat sushi are Sushi Thai on
Watson Boulevard in Warner Robins and
Sho Gun on Burrus Road in Macon. I also
like to buy California rolls from Publix, but

I would not recommend those be your first
sample of sushi as it is not as good as from
a restaurant.

need a few supplies, most of which people
do not have lying around the house:

Wood spoon or wood or plastic rice paddle
Plastic wrap
