That looks cooked to me. If it's cooked, it's NOT real sushi.

Tempura, at best. :cool:

[bparker]

The sauce is "warmed" in a small toaster oven for color but all else is sushi including the rolls.

I know you cant make everyone happy but just get over it and go try some then come back and try tell me you give a flying fuk about whats cooked about it and what not...

:jump:

Mah gawd, i even tried to explain... where I come from in TX they were called crawdeads... but yes aka what you mentioned...

It's crawDADS or crayfish or mudbugs or kreef or Cape Rock Lobster or decapod..... never crawdead.

[Mrs.ssippi]

You should have just said "SUSHI ROCKS!!!!!" and that would have been a correct statement. I'm sure the crayfish was cooked because you can not eat that raw. It's like the shirmp and the faux crab that is in sushi. The best is chirashi and squid salad. Man, my mouth is watering now. Might have to get sushi for dinner. :jump: :beerchug:

[partsguy]

Be there in 45 minutes.You're what about 25miles southwest of Baltimore?:twak:

[partsguy]

I'll bring the 5 gallon drum of 409 and the rubber gloves.

I will let her explain it to ya,I'm too nice of a guy!:o

[Mrs.ssippi]

Okay, a few weeks ago I drank like 47 cosmos and got sick in Paragons truck. But it was not the kind of drunk that I will never drink cosmos again. But everyone thought it was sooo funny. I'm not sure what was funnier Paragon cleaning up throw-up at 11:30 at night or just the fact that he finally had to clean up the truck after having it for over 4 years.:beerchug:

A common Sushi Newb Mistake!...Sushi is Sushi...NOT sashimi or Raw Fish!

[PARAGON]

yep, but hey, he lives over a mile above sea level, what do you expect.:giggling:

Sushi refers to the rice. (BTW, we haven't been eating sushi as much in the past couple of years, so forgive me if my memory misses a couple). Sashimi is generally the raw fish w/o anything else. Nigiri is slices of, generally raw fish, on little clump of rice. Maki is the stuff most everyone is familiar with, rice rolled with Nori (seaweed) and vegetables and fish. Futomaki is generally a Big Maki or a big roll. It's actually called a Big Roll here.

Chirashi is another form of sashimi where the slices of raw fish is just laid on top of a big bowl of rice. Mrs. gets that a lot.

Temaki is the ice cream cone shaped thing sometimes referred to as a "hand roll"

California roll is a maki roll with roe

'bout all I can remember at the moment.

I AM impressed, Mrs and Paragon! We have sushi, sashimi, chirashi, temaki, futomaki on practically every corner here! I wouldn't have thought you'd have so much in MS. to actually know the types! Geeez, well done! :beerchug: (Our California roll has pieces of faux crab, cucumber and avocado wrapped in rice and seaweed. ;) )

Yep!, that about covers it! :beerchug: ...Except for a bottle of Asahi to wash it down maybe! ;) .......

But, Being a Newb myself!, and just pointing at pictures for nearly two years in Japan--70's--the Raw fish Rainbow Roll is one of My Fav's! Yam! Yam!!!....And for the Palm Springs/Palm Desert Area Sushi Connoisseur...Tanpopo's is a must try! :perfect10s:

We have an internationally known sushi resturant here. The owner used to sell fish at a market in Japan and after saving enough money came to good ole Mississip to set up shop and make us some culture.

Tomi-son:perfect10s:

That was many years ago, now we have sushi resturants everywhere and he even opened a second location.

What's the name of the restaurant? Is it IN Jackson? I'll pass the name along to friends of mine in who live in the Jackson area. Though in the opposite direction of sushi .. they boast about a Russian restaurant in the Jackson/maybe Ridgeland(?) area called Olga's.

I've never been there, but I've been told it is very good. I did not know you had friends in the Jackson area.

I've been eating sushi since I was a young girl, my dad lived in Dallas and introduced it to me when I was about 8 years old. I spit the first bite in my napkin and said gross, but the next day I told my dad that I wanted to go back and try it again. We did, and the rest is history. After that summer I came back to Jackson and they did not even have a sushi place then. But when I was about 12 they got one. Been eating there ever since. Even on our wedding night we had the limo stop at "Little Tokyo" so we could eat before we went to the hotel. :clapping: :clapping: :clapping:

Great story! Yeah, sushi can be addictive. We got hooked after our first trip to Japan years ago. I love seeing the expressions on people's faces when we order many of the unusual ones. I'll let our friends know about Little Tokyo... maybe they already know of it and haven't told me! LOL. They're not Hummer people .. but they're good people. LOL. :cool:

I'm not speaking of the literal definition of sushi, my friend. I'm just saying that it cracks me up to watch some noob order from the sushi menu: rolls with COOKED salmon, tamago (egg), and some COOKED shrimp sushi.......then he goes and brags about how brave he was to eat sushi.

[CO Hummer]

I've been eating sushi since I was a young girl, my dad lived in Dallas and introduced it to me when I was about 8 years old.

My daughter started on the "real" sushi (with raw fish ;) ) when she was 4. We took her out to eat on her last two birthdays and let her pick the restaurant. Both times it was our favorite sushi place. :D

We go 2-3 times a year since wifey's parents demand to see the grandkids. Eat hard. Drink harder.:beerchug:

Sushi is actually only 5% of the Japanese diet. Most are cooked and hot pots are the most common. Yummy stuff.

What is this Shabu-Shabu you speak of? :confused:
Mmmmm .. Shabu-Shabu ... each couple (or person) gets their own little pot of broth (or water, depending) set upon a burner. You are brought a platter of the most delicate, delicious pieces of vegetables (like carrot, bok choy, sprouts, cabbage, mushrooms, any combination .. but usually sliced thin) .. and depending on what you had ordered .. could be thinly sliced Kobe beef (the most DELICIOUS Japanese beef!!), chicken (Americanized version) or fish. You actually cook your selctions yourself by taking each piece into your chop sticks and stirring it slowly into the very hot broth or boiling water. On the side are small bowls/remekins with different Japanese sauces to swirl your cooked veggie, fish or meat. Of course, the Japanese do this with the greatest elegance. ;) Sukiyaki is also delicious. Somewhat similar technique, except that you use more of a little frying pan with a seasoned chunk of butter. We couldn't get enough Shabu-Shabu in Japan. LOL. On our returns, the hotel concierge would greet us with, "I have taken the liberty to make the necessary reservations for you during the week at (our fav Shabu restaurant)". LOL. Ask the owner of Little Tokyo to make you Shabu-Shabu! He'll probably love that you know what it is... and he'll probably enjoy preparing something out of the ordinary for his customer. :D If you try it, let me know what you thought!

[Steve - SanJose]

I like shabu shabu. There's a place in Milpitas (actually owned by Chinese) that does it very well.

Bloody hell. The Chinese are taking over everything!

[Mrs.ssippi]

Bloody hell. The Chinese are taking over everything!We have a few places around here that advertise all you can eat Chinese Buffet and Sushi. I often think someone should sell some type of food poisioning insurance right out side the door. :jump:

[GLBLWARMR]

That just means that they have the best food. Usually when I travel to places like the philippines and thailand, the worst the places looks the better the food has been. Now I do not recommend this as a normal practice but it hasn't failed me yet. Either that or I have gotten food poisioning so many times that I have now immune to improperly cooked food.

Reminds me of the time I walked into a hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurant with a buddy. Someone had a small dog chained up to the front of the building. My buddy said "Oh, look. Catch of the day". That made me laugh, a lot! :D

Not so far from the truth .. some of the Pacific Rim countries do eat dog. It was offered when we were Macao.:eek: And, dogs roam freely in the streets there. Double :eek:!

I spent six months in China and saw a lot of stranger things than dog get eaten.

I was teaching a software class to a bunch of Chinese guys that didn't speak English. At the break, they took me out for lunch and did the ordering. My first meal in China was: Cooked Duck tongues, Fish intestines, and these huge boiled beetles (served just like it sounds, a big oval plate with dead 2" water beetles on it). :eek:

If you are ever in the East and you go to a restaurant with round wooden tables with about a 8" hole in the center with some dark stain around it.....

just go somewhere else.:popcorn:

He would give us new stuff to try. I knew that I had to eat whatever he made for us or I would offend him. Many times it took everything I had to swallow some of that stuff. And I like oysters so its not like I have a problem eating slimey stuff. Its when it has eyes and it talks back to you :giggling: that I have issues with.

You've tried monkey brains? They had this place in Thailand that did that. The poor guy was alive and the patrons would mallet the monkey to death. Then viola! Monkey stomped brains.

[Hmmm2]

My worst experience was steamed octopus in Hong Kong. It was brought to the table in a lidded bamboo box. When the woman took the lid off, the tentacles began to ooze out of the box. It was still alive, though somewhat steamed. :eek: When they saw the hues of green we were turning, they offered us jellied pigeon instead. :eek: Oh, and then there was the time in Hong Kong where the table next to us had ordered 'Drunken Frog" ... it was barbaric. A whole family .. like family reunion ... had ordered many platters. One, centered on a 'lazy Susan', was a big waterless fish bowl full of live frogs. The waiter had turned up an electric grill underneath the bowl, while he poured some sort of liquor into the bowl. The liquor heated as the frogs tried to jump out .. finally cooking them. :eek: Not long later, the family all reached in to take the ones they wanted and began to eat. Ughhhhhhhh ......

Thoughts on sea urchin, please.

I was on a trip in Japan several years ago and our hosts decided to either be really nice or have some fun at our expense and took us to a sushi restaurant. They started out with basic stuff, but just kept ordering more and more bizzare looking and tasting things, like they were trying to see how far they could push us. When the sea urchin hit my mouth, I just had to call it quits.

BTW, I don't do sushi (aka whatever) anymore.

Someone tried something similar. But I don't remember anything about it one way or the other. Must not have been all that bad.... as matter of fact about the only thing I don't care much for is tuna and/or lots of wasabi.
