Sorry to hear about all the growling tummies in YT land-

I'm stuffing my face with a 7 piece sushi sampler and pumpkin miso soup

What is it with sushi???

I might be able to understand the rice part and possibly the seaweed, but the kinds that have raw fish? There are times when cooked fish grosses me out! Isn't it slimy? Strong? Am I missing something good?

No raw fish for me either. I cant get past the thought of it

Ellie May · 06-23-2010, 10:49 AM

Hmm, I wonder what it tastes like.

Somebody enlighten us.
Is it "fishy?"

Ellie May · 06-23-2010, 10:55 AM

Yucky.
I never understood why most people like mushrooms either.

Sushi is so fresh there is absolutely no odor or "slime" however, can be slippery (sorry) and I totally understand your fear and wanting to jump out of your own skin when you think of putting raw fish in your mouth

It's really something you need to taste and experience......maybe after a few glasses wine

. It's served in small pieces, commonly with rice, you dip it in soy sauce laced with wasabi (like a horseradish taste) and monge!

It's addicting

&fun!

LOL...I bet for some people, that's totally gross

...but it's SO good!

This sounds incredible! Tempura batter anything is great!

Sushi is not fishy at all, and if it is you probably need to go to a new sushi restaurant. I also believe it's an acquired taste. The most common roll is the California roll which generally consists of crab meat (cooked), avocado, & cucumber wrapped in rice and wrapped in seaweed. The seaweed doesn't have much taste but the flavors together are phenomenal.

I'd recommend trying this first for anyone curious about sushi. Oh, and eel sauce

So delicious. It is a very sweet flavored sauce.

The fish is not the same grade fish you would buy in your local supermarket.

I too love tempura-anything. Anything. I agree, sushi tastes so fresh - and there is a taste explosion in your mouth. If you eat a piece of a roll, there are layers of different tastes, each one different, and it's incredible.

Seriously (this is kinda embarrassing), when me and hubby go out for sushi, and we put a piece in our mouths - we often have to close our eyes, bc it is *that good*. Or, we do a little chair dance.

Sushi = little moments of taste ecstasy!

Seaweed is so delicious...can't explain the taste, very fresh. And served with a vinegar-y dressing.

I love sushi -- but I don't want to know what is in it.

That is the way I am with a lot of food.
