Me too. It’s finger food to me. Light finger grip. Sometimes with sticks if my company feels it’s icky.

How do you do with the soy?

I use chopsticks but now I see how wrong I’ve been using them. And I do like to dip the sushi rice in the soy, also wrong. 

 

Cant stand the ginger, so I’m not going to start using it as a brush now. But despite all my faux pas, I love my sushi!

Don’t eat the ginger if you don’t like it, just use it to coat the fish with soy, unless the fish is already coated. It’s quite clever.

The idea with ginger is to clean your palate between bites, but as Jiro says in this article, other things, such as tea, works as well.

Does anyone make their own Sushi?

I think I would enjoy making some good sushi and it would probably be much more affordable than Sushi at the restaurants.

Yes! I’ve made my own. A bit messy but fun to make.

I have tried. There are two things that are tricky: Getting good fish for nigiri, temari, and oishi, and getting the rice just right. Shaping the sushi is easy.

Usually with fork and knife 🍽🍣🙈

 

Thank you for the reminder, I should eat sushi while in Scandinavia. Even the fresh supermarket sushi is edible and unlike in the US, I can find delicious salmon nigiri rolls..mmmm...

Nu blir det en riktig chatt det här... 😅 Men jag har inte finmotorik i fingrarna att kunna äta med pinnar 🙈 Skulle jag bo i Asien vore jag nog tvungen att lära mig.

Picking them up with your fingers to eat them is totally acceptable as well...
