Aww, I have to work on Monday night now. I'm so bummed!
I'll definitely be following up later in the evening, though!

What kind of gourd? I'm going to try growing angled gourds this summer, but I can't eat any of the bitter ones. I know you'll tell us everything on Monday, but I just had to ask.

Yes! I'm excited that you're excited. I'm off to the store now, and then I'm going to simmer up some mushrooms and gourd and make some sauces for tomorrow.
And thanks for including non seafood in the even because, as much as I'd like to try sushi, I can't eat seafood kind.

EdenCooks doing sushi made me crave the stuff so much that I wound up making a sticky rice salad despite the fact that we had an entire roast chicken with stuffing and potatoes for dinner. I think that I can officially say that I'm pumped for tomorrow.

I'm excited for the veggie recipes! I love sushi, but became vegetarian, and I'm getting bored of my regular cucumber/avocado rolls.
04/14/2013
This is a fabulous idea, I cannot wait.
04/14/2013
Oh, hell yes! I'll set an alarm on my phone so I don't miss this! I love sushi (both the making and the eating), and recently was gifted a sashimi knife, so I'll be picking up some tuna and joining y'all tomorrow.
04/14/2013
This should be fun! I'm hoping I can make it in time.
04/14/2013
Sushi is the best!
04/15/2013
I hate sushi, some of the times
04/15/2013
I'm super excited for this!
04/15/2013
Ooooh! Ok, I am excited for this!

Oh, hey! Antipova, if you don't have an eel sauce DIY recipe, I can toss a link to the recipe I use. (For some reason, there isn't a single place to buy eel sauce in my town, despite 3 Asian markets, 1 World Market, and 3 HEB stores. Booo.)

The Japanese gourd Kanpyo---comes dried. It's quite sweet, at least after you simmer it.

We'll miss you, LD29! But dv8, don't you worry.
Surreptitious, I'm excited too, and that sounds super delicious!
Everybody, I am so excited! And yes, please do bring your eel sauce recipe, or any recipes anyone who has'em! My Japanese market had eel sauce, but none of it was very authentic.
Anyway, I hope you're all excited for tonight!

I second Antipova's suggestion that you throw your recipe out here - I absolutely adored the unagi sauce that I used to get at the grocery store (it was so delicious that it actually made grocery store dragon rolls palatable) and I would love to learn to make my own.

link This is the eel sauce recipe I use! It takes forever to reduce (2-3 hours, or less if you cheat and use cornstarch to thicken), but it's delicious and totally worth the time it takes to make it.

I'm so excited for this! I had tried to make sushi a few years ago and everything turned out so great... kinda wish I remember which recipes I had used.. but anyway, where it all went wrong was when I tried cutting into my roll. It just squished and made a mess. A delicious mess but my knife was a serious problem.
Since then I have been asking around what kind of knife is best and where I can get one and just haven't gotten a great answer yet. Hopefully I can find out tonight!

I've used regular kitchen knives before. The key seems to be that the blade needs to be really sharp, you need to dip in it water between slices (that sticky rice is really sticky!), and it needs to not be a serrated blade.

Yummmmmm....
And stock is a good thing to do on laundry day. Especially since it usually lasts a while.
Just 45 minutes, everyone!

My knives aren't the best and I tried to use my sharpest one but I guess it wasn't as sharp as I thought. I was dipping it water between every slice but my knife must've been pretty dull cause it did not but squish the roll.

I actually sharpened mine just before I took on this project I used a medium-sized Wusthof, but honestly even just a $15 knife you can get at a restaurant supply store will work fine. Just make sure it's sharpened, like Pixel said!
