Sushi Potluck

It was Sunday and we started the day at 4am. Preparing the ingredients take up almost 3 hours. Cutting and slicing carrots, cucumber, avocado, seaweed, crab stick, egg omelette. Frying the omelette is quite a challenge. I don't have the right saucepan, so the twist and turn resulted in fatal condition. As for the shrimp, its' perfect. We made a great tempura. I had three helpers, that makes four of us.

In the end we managed to make TEN combinations:
1. Futomaki - Ham and Cheese = 100 pieces
2. Futomaki - Shrimp and crabstick = 100 pieces
3. Futomaki - Tuna and seaweed = 30 pieces
4. Futomaki - Salmon and seaweed = 30 pieces
5. California Roll = 150 pieces

6. Nigiri sushi - Shrimp = 20 pieces
7. Nigiri sushi - crab stick = 20 pieces
8. small roll - seaweed = 30 pieces
9. small roll - tamago = 10 pieces
10. small roll - tuna = 20 pieces

Altogether adds up to 510 pieces. Haven't include the unsucessful breeds. Those that look a little like moth-balls.....rather than rolls. Preparing the ingredients takes up almost three hours. The number of bowls and plates that we have to wash at the end of the day is just unbelievable.

Preparing the ingredients is a challenge. We were shot of crab sticks and shrimp. Also, this time, the ham and the omelette didn't come in square-blocks. I hope I will improve the next time.
