Abokado? Bangō (Avocado? No)

 Today I tried a Dragon Roll from Fujiya House. I noticed that the eel was on top of this roll unlike other rolls where the eel was inside of the roll. The sauce tasted sweet but there was no avocado, unlike most Dragon Rolls. The roll consisted of eel, avocado, the signature sauce, crab and cucumber. Overall I thought the roll was very well done. Now that I have tried two rolls I am ready to make my own.

 Today I tried a Dragon Roll from Umi and it tasted good. The crab was a little hard but it was still flavorful. Also there was a sweet sauce in the Dragon Roll and the avocados were tightly packed together. I noticed that the sushi didn't taste very fresh but the avocado looked nice. Overall this was an okay roll. This is part of my research before I make my own Dragon Roll.

Abokado (Avocado)

  Today I cut avocados. The tricky part about cutting avocados is how they are round so you have to cut them in half. Many people cut themselves trying to cut an avocado so you need to be really careful. Once I cut the avocado in half I sliced it up into small slices(top right of picture) and they were the perfect size for a sushi roll. The link below shows how to properly cut an avocado. https://video.search.yahoo.com/search/video;_ylt=

Bejirōru (Veggie Roll)

 Today I made a Veggie Roll. A Veggie Roll is made up of cucumbers, carrots, and an avocado. The veggie roll I made was rolled tightly but the the shredded carrots fell right out of the roll. I would not call my sushi a fail but it sure was close. on the outside it did not look too bad until you realized that half of its ingredients were missing. The Veggie Roll from Wegmans on the other hand looked great and tasted the same as my roll(minus the carrots.) I believe this is a difficult roll because even if you tightly pack the roll it will still fall apart. Here is the recipe I used for my Veggie Roll. https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/veggie-sushi-rolls-367009
