"Playwrights are like men who have been dining for a month in an Indian restaurant. After eating curry night after night, they deny the existence of asparagus."
Peter Ustinov

Asian recipes have draw on thousands of years of experience to produce a rich variety of spicy and healthy recipes.

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Party Sushi Rolls

 

Ingredients

2 cup white, short-grain rice, preferably, japanese
3 cup water (or according to rice package, directions)
3 1/2 tbsp rice vinegar -or- white vinegar
1 tbsp sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt



 

Preparation

Sushi, a representative food of Japan, is a vinegared rice garnished
with an assortment of fresh vegetables, fish and seasonings. You'll
find many of the ingredients ... and the bamboo mat ... at an
Oriental food store.

RICE:

Cook rice in water for about 25 minutes or until all the liquid is
absorbed. Spread rice evenly over bottom of a large glass or wooden
bowl.

Mix vinegar, sugar and salt together in a small bowl.

Sprinkle vinegar mixture generously over the rice. You may not need
all the vinegar mixture. The rice should remain somewhat dry.

With a large wooden spoon, mix rice with a slicing motion.

Leave the rice in the bowl, covered with a damp cloth.

ROLLS:

1 pk Nori Seaweed, large or medium (Quality nori seaweed must be
crisp. Look for a well-sealed package.) 1 Bamboo Mat, medium or
large, for rolling sushi

FILLINGS ... Chose from these combinations:

1 Cucumber, cut into thin strips the same length as seaweed 1
Avocado, peeled, pitted and cut into thin strips Fresh Cilantro,
minced

2 oz Daikon Radish, cut into strips 2 oz Pickled Ginger 4 oz Small
Shrimp, cooked

4 oz Prosciutto 1 Cucumber, cut into thin strips 1 Avocado, peeled,
pitted and cut into thin strips 2 oz Pickled Ginger

TO ASSEMBLE SUSHI ROLLS:

Place one sheet of nori seaweed on the bamboo mat.

Spread approximately 3/4 cup rice onto seaweed; flatten with the back
of a spoon. Leave uncovered 3/8 inch (1 cm) at front of sheet and
3/4 inch (2 cm at end of sheet.

Place all filling ingredients at center.

To form roll, lift one end of the mat and begin to roll and compress
the seaweed. Use the mat only to help form the roll. (It may be
difficult at first to keep the mat from rolling with the seaweed.)

Moisten end of seaweed with a small amount of water to seal the roll.

Cut into rounds approximately 1/2 inch thick.
