Sushi is a great traditional Japanese dish that practically everybody has heard of and more likely tasted it.  And if you are lucky, you have tasted at wonderful Sushi restaurant Temecula.

It is a great traditional dish that is usually made of rice, seaweed, and of course raw fish.

Now if you don’t like fish in the first place, of course you will not like sushi.But if you are a seafood lover, then you can bet you will enjoy sushi.

Of course, most sushi is enjoyed in fine restaurants such as the one you can find at Sushi restaurant Lake Elsinore.  You can enjoy them in small fast food type of Japanese restaurants.

Or you can enjoy them in more formal dining environments, like the one found at Sushi Restaurant Hemet.

Or best of all, you can enjoy them in an all you can eat style.

But if you are in an industrious mood, maybe you might even want to try your hand at making it at home.

Now here is a quick rundown of sushi and it’s 3 types that you can make.

First type is the Maki sushi.  It is the usual that you are used to that consists of fish/seafood with rice that is then wrapped in nori or seaweed.Most well known is the California roll of course

Now there are 2 types of sushi within the Maki sushi.  There is the “fat maki” called the Futomaki and it is called fat, because it contains 2 or more of the filllings (fish/seafood)

Second type is the Hosomaki or the “thin maki” called that because it has only one filling of fish or seafood.  But it could also be a single vegetable as well.

Then there is the Nigiri sushi which is our second type of Sushi.This is another crowd favorite type of sushi which is a thin slice of raw fish placed on top of a chunk of rice that is rectangular.  There is nothing
that wraps it up such as seaweed, like the Maki sushi.

Finally there is the Uramaki, which can also be called the inside out sushi.It is known as the inside out because it is exactly that, a backwards version of the Maki because the rice is on the outside of the nori rather than the inside.  Also what is inside is the fish or seafood type of fare.

There you go.  3 wonderful types of sushi you can try your hand at making at home.

Naturally, the greatest way to make it the best is to first try some at a good sushi restaurant, so you can try all 3 styles and see what ingredients there are.

So happy eating.
