Japanese food anyone :)

Last night I made my first own sushi :) As His Hubbiness™ was off with former schoolmates to have some fun on his own I was puttering around at home and was making sushi for myself (His Hubbiness™ is the kind of man who doesn't anything he doesn't know and has never tasted as a kid *sigh*).

I had bought sushi maker sets and all and Nishiki rice and lookee here, it worked just beautifully :)

clockwise: bowl of self-made kim chi, rice with sesame seasoning and cucumber cutouts, gari (pickled ginger), soy sauce and wasabi, a plate of maki and nigiri sushi
I made the nigiri and the maki roles, using surimi sticks, fresh salmon & tuna, octopus and gambas. It was very yummy and I had enough to have a little midnight snack when His Hubbiness™ came home and wanted a snack as well (sans Sushi).

That looks really delicious! I've made sushi a few times with my friends and it's very yummy. I want to try making kimchi some day as well.

For kim chi I use this recipe http://www.pyongyang-metro.com/kimchi/

It is delicious and I could eat it every day :)
