But sometimes people want to make great sushi for the home. I should know. I own a Sushi Restaurant Murrieta and get asked all the time by my customers. They want to always know what the secret to great tasting fish is so you can make it at home?

I always kid around and tell them it is impossible and they will have to always come to my restaurant. But seriously, if you are looking for great pieces of advice for great sushi you can make at home, pay attention.

First thing is to make sure to have fun. Remember, you are not trying to make this for a Sushi restaurant Temecula full of people. You most likely are just making it for friends.

Remember great tasting food doesn’t have to look beautiful. So relax, remember you are going to go through a learning curve.

For the rice, it is a must that it is sticky. So if you do not want rice all over the place, wash your hands often.

Another great tip is to try and not make the biggest sushi in the world. Yes everything tastes great. But if you try and stuff too many ingredients into one roll it will be a disaster. You are going to have rolls that don’t roll up. You will have ingredients spilling out because it is overstuffed.

Just do not do it.

Fourth tip, be gentle. Resist the temptation to use too much force. When you make Sushi, all you have to do is gently roll. To much force with your fingers and the rolls end up looking funny or have an odd shape.

Final tip is using of knives. Obviously when making sushi, you will need small parts of fish. Well to stop the fish from tearing, make sure the knife is moistened. This gives you the ability to cut into it with the knife evenly. You will have nice pieces of fish that you are able to put into the sushi.

There you have it. Follow these few steps and you will be making great sushi like at my Sushi Restaurant Lake Elsinore.

Making Sushi doesn’t have to be complicated. It has to be fun and enjoyable, but more importantly delicious.
