Hm. Not quite sure what to base this journal entry on.
..... OH OH OH, I KNOW!!!! biggrin
There's nothing quite like sushi. The almighty, completely powerful sushi. So many different forms of it... rolls, nigiri, sashimi, maki, cones... etc. Salmon, tuna, tempura, egg (tamago), shrimp, eel, octopus (not on my like list...), spicy tuna, spicy salmon, even simple California rolls. There are so many different types of styles and fish to choose from. And the rice... with the perfect amount of rice vinegar, salt and sugar, the rice alone can make a great snack. However, the fresh fish seals the deal. The rice is never quite the same without the fresh, beautiful, succulent slabs of fish. And what's sushi without wasabi and soy sauce? The wasabi is what enhances the sushi itself... and the soy sauce decreases the overbearing hotness of the wasabi. Without the perfect mixture of those two, it's never quite right. And then... to finish everything off, when your plate is empty, and your stomach is full... there's nothing like a small pile of ginger to freshen your mouth. The spicy fresh taste/feeling it gives off is optional, but a great little breath freshener after eating all that fish. Don't want overbearing fish breath afterwards. ^^
