sushi or sandwich???

I made roll with bread. This seems far from authentic sushi but rather looks like a kind of sandwich. However I think this is good to show you how to use Makisu. I put a piece of bread and Tobiko (orange colored fish eggs), cream cheese, and mayonnaise. The second picture shows rolling from this side and making the shape round. Then cut it. You see the result in the last picture! The bread was too thick to make the shape. How was the tast? Not bad, at least I would say... Please get a makisu and try it anyway in your way!sushi or sandwich

Let's roll up!

Have you tried making any roll sushi? How did you do that? This is called "Makisu," a tool to make rolls. Bamboo sticks are tied with threads. This looks like a nice sunblind at your window, doesn't it? However, this is a bit too small to meet the purpose. So, we use this only for make rolls. I don't know how to call this in English, so please let me know if you know how to say this in English. You put a seaweed sheet (nori) on Makisu, put rice on the seeweed, and put some pickles. Roll it up, and you can make roll sushi. Cut it with a sharp knife. The surface of the cut will be very fancy. That is an interesting point of roll sushi. Look is very important for food as well as its tast. I got an idea! You can also roll up bread. I will try it for tomorrow's breakfast. Do you have any other idea of what you can roll other than that???
