A few days ago I had a course how to make sushi ^___^
It took only 4 hours, but it was pretty fun *____*

I LOVE sushi ! Especially with tuna and salmon !! *drools*
I have never thought of making sushi by myself, but after this course I will definitively give it a try ^^;;

Unfortunately we didn´t do the 'real' thing - that means the cook didn´t bring uncooked fish with him ! But we had smoked salmon *drools more* ^-^;;
He just wanted to show us the procedure of making sushi !
He also showed how to color the rice (for children e.g.) - we used the juice of beetroot (so the rice was pink XD *squee*) But that one didn´t taste that good :/ .....
We also made pancakes and rolled them - don´t know why he did that (it has nothing to do with sushi XD)

Questions:
Any good suggestions what I could put into my sushi next time ? Something that is easy to roll for a beginner please XD
And any good suggestions what I could put into my onigiri ? *______*


That´s all for now ^_______^/~

Hn~ I´ve just bought a proper tea set ^-^
It was not so cheap, but well .... (all in all about 40€, must be a little more than 40 $ I think O___o;; ....)

My favourites are:
[x] Shogun (green tea from Ceylon and Indonesia flavoured with raspberry, rhubarb and vanilla ~ with apple pieces in it ^^)
[x] Natsu Kaori [it´s Japanese and means: summer aroma] ~ (it´s really mild, green tea from India, Japan and Ceylon flavoured with strawberry and vanilla ~ with strawberry pieces in it)
[x] China Wuyuan Jasmin (from China, province Jiangxi)
[x] Japanese Sencha (I like this tea especially when eating sushi <3)


I would like to try Japanese Gyokuro soon, but that´s pretty expensive. Anyone tried it out already ?
