I go out for Sushi 3/4 times a week. So I get the idea, let me try to make this at home.
The rice, fish, every thing else came out great. The problem I have is with the seaweed wrap. Brand name Wang/the exp date 2009/roasted seaweed/sushi nori/50 sheets. The stuff smells like some one just pulled it out of the water. It also dose not chew well like the stuff I get at my local retaurants. Do I need to prep the wrap some way? Is there a way to cut down the smell and taste of the wrap? Or did I just get the wrong kind of wrap?

 

The same thing happened to me when I tried to prepare sushi at home. In a restaurant, you can't even tell it's there but when I made it, the seaweed was nasty and got in the way.

 

dont get the roasted one.. you need to get the non-rosted ones..

roasted ones are too crunchy to wrap..

 

I remember my ex-gf making it.....she also prepared it someway with soaking it in water. Can't remember the specifics, sorry. They come in like packages of 4 million....trial and error!

 

hah! how is the seaweed prepared? boiled or steamed then? how does it stay tacky?

 

you dont need to prepare the seaweed.. just buy the unroasted ones and it will wrap just fine
