Sushi week

Hello,bloggers. Last week at cooking we were in japan to make some sushi. The first day we made sushi rolls and then we made rice balls (my favourite.) The first thing I will explain is sushi rolls. The steps are

1. Cook rice
2. Prep the veges/fillings
3. Pour sushi vinegar on rice to change the ph level
4. Flatten rice on a plate
5. Put nori on a bamboo mat
6. Put rice on nori, Don't forget to leave a 2cm gap between the top 
7. Put filling on top or rice
8. Wet tip of fingers the put on the gap of nori
9. Roll tightly
10. Enjoy!

I enjoyed it because of all the flavors blending and making a flavor explosion in your mouth. When you bite into it some of its soft and some you have to crunch depending on what you put in. If you like sushi or just want to try it make it, it's easy but you need a bamboo mat so try to get one of those before trying.

The next thing we made was rice balls, whenever we go down to the sushi shop I would ask for a rice ball. The steps to make this is

1. Cook rice
2. Prep veges/fillings
3. pour sushi vinegar on the rice
4. flatten rice on plate
5. Get some glad wrap
6. Put glad wrap on a surface not crinkled
7.  Put rice on glad wrap 
8. put toppings on top of the rice
9. pull glad wrap so in a ball
10. Tighten the ball
11. Enjoy

I enjoyed it because when you bite in you might get a chunk of rice or get some toppings but on the next bite you the all the flavors in you mouth. We also had a competition at the end and my team come second place and I was surprised by that. I liked the way that it teased you by just giving you the rice an then the toppings.  I think this is the essayist one to make and because the ingredients are usually around the house.
