Ahhhhhhh Sushi!

Post by Brinn »

Who likes it???

I'm referring not just to the rolled sushi but also sliced raw fish which is known as sashimi. I love both! Strangely I can't stand cooked fish but if it's raw I'm all for it! Raw Salmon, raw Tuna, raw Halibut all wonderful stuff and so subtlely flavored. As far as the sushi rolls go...Spider roll is my favorite (a whole deep fried soft shell crab, avacado, cucumber, a little spicy sauce). Whaddya think!?!?
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

Yellowfin Tuna is my favorite roll. Halibut and Eel is the best sashimi. Finish off the meal with the sweet egg sashimi, Tomago I believe is the spelling. 8)

I hear you, Brinn. I can't stand most seafood (tastes way too fishy), but sushi.... mmmm. My favorite has to be eel (Umago?). I don't like most sashimi, but all the above listed are good (I would've liked the octopus, but it took way too long to chew... like bubblegum).

YUM!!!!! Love sushi. :) California rolls are the most popular forms of sushi here, but I love Ikura (salmon roe) , the shrimp, and crabmeat (Kari). I never imagined that I would eat raw fish meat but salmon and maguro sashimi are my absolute favourites.

And yes Damelon Tamago is YUMM!!!!!!!

I have to admit, I've never been able to bring myself to try it. :oops: The California rolls seem to popular around here, though. You can even buy them at the big grocery store nearby from their deli.
Love as thou wilt.

I like a good steak tartar every now and then.

Steak tartar with a little parmesean cheese sprinkled on top is a great change of pace. 8)

I can understand that sentiment! Any particular types that you like more than others?
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse.

Raw is much, much better if you ask me (which you didn't). Little bit of cocktail sauce, horseradish, and lemon. Ambrosia baby!
