1st project: Make sushi.
I thought it would be an excellent start to this challenge. I love food, I love sushi, and I've been wanting to make it for ages now.
To start simple, I chose crabsticks, cocumbers and avocados as filling.
Tada! I ended up needing more avocado than shown there in the pic.
Organising and cutting the filling turned out to be the easiest part of this. The rice had to be rinsed up to 5 times until the water turned clear - and I can tell you, that needed some patience!
Clean and clear!
While I was preparing this, Lilly got a little too interested in the crabsticks:
To keep her away I had to give her some snacks of her own!
Here's how they turned out. Not bad for a first try, right? They tasted too much of rice, but were still delicious!
Some of them look kind of dead, though. Heh!
