料理教室

We had another cooking class last week! This time we made sushi rolls and inari zushi. This kind of sushi is the type that familys often make for an everyday, simple meal. We filled the rolls with cucumber, imitation crab, grilled egg, ginger, and a special kind of pickled vegetable. But you can basically fill them with anything you want- like tuna, lettuce, etc! I had made both of these types of sushi before, but the cooking method for the inari zushi produced phenomenally tasty sushi so I am glad we were taught that method! 

Inari zushi is sushi rice which often has little things mixed in, this time we just used sesame seeds, and stuffed into prepared tofu skin pouches. The lady who taught us wanted to teach us a quick, easy method to make inari zushi, by sauteeing the pouches rather than simmering them like normal. Although it was a "quick and easy" method it made the sushi way more flavorful than the regular kind!
