sushi for my banshee


W
ho can remember the band souxsie and the banshees? They hit the scene in 76 with their first album coming out in 1978. I think they might still be performing.



Have a little listen while you nibble on some sushi for banshees.



We make sushi often since it is a kid favorite - this one has cucumber, salmon, avocado and lumpfish roe. Itadakimasu!




I can understand why some people see this and say Mazui but not us! Dragon roll, rolling.




I see this and I say Oishisou.

And most of you need to back up now -



Quail egg, lumpfish roe, rice and nori!

Great presentation! My wife would never eat it, so I don't make it...

Angel said...

you should be arrested for feeding your kid that stuff....no. way. I may just be a country bumpkin, But I'm a proud county bumpkin! ;)

Christo Gonzales said...

anette: its salmon so it must be good..

buff: does your wife eat steamed shrimp? If so make some with steamed shrimp...

Chef E said...

Hell I like the plate, could add it to my collection...but I ate sushi a lot more when my kid was home. From his first bite in Texas to NYC when we got snowed in Manhattan 2003? or earlier, he wanted to shovel snow, in trade sushi place feed him sushi...

my daughter just saw me looking at this and said have the pizza guy teach you to do this (she loves your pizza's I made) I don't think I am ready for sushi, I just unpacked my Kitchen Aid pasta making attachment and am feeling very overwhelmed. It is going to have to wait til next weekend and I am going to need your help so get ready you dog, you have created a beast in the form of I have gained 5-8#'s since getting hooked on your blog, shame shame shame on you!

Just telling it like it is said...

Beautiful presentation but that roll kind of look phallic I'm not complaining or anything..

Christo Gonzales said...

chef e: I wish I could give you the plate but I only have two

anndi: it is artsy a bit - ease the chicklet into it...

snugs: yes, another happy convert...

just telling: you are right - it is a bit isnt it.

I see this and I say....damn that's pretty! Do you cater? j/k
On delivery at sea, if dorado or tuna was caught the chef would present some sushi, never looked that good.

Show us what you can do with a pumpkin pie.

Slip said...

When it comes to sushi I can take it or leave it. My youngest son thinks it's the bomb! He is always creating new and better roll ups and he lets me taste test.

jesse said...

Spin said...
