My Belly Thanks You

I love being married to a food man.  It's one of the things that I love most about Dillon.  He's always excited and eager to learn to make new things in the kitchen, especially things that most people wouldn't think about making at home.  Like doughnuts, and cheese, and SUSHI.  A few months ago we attempted to make sushi rolls at home.  It was pretty much a disaster. The rice stuck more to our hands than to the Nori and we ended up with a pile of rice mush.  Last week we started having an intense hankering for sushi.  We went to an all-you-can-eat sushi place in town and it was delicious.  After we got a taste for it, we couldn't stop craving it.  And as fellow sushi lovers know, sushi can get pricey.  So we decided to try to make homemade sushi again.  We were determined to do things right this time so Dillon did tons of research about how to make the rice work.  He even took a trip to a local oriental market to get only the best ingredients: the kind where the labels are completely in Chinese. We even got all fancy and topped them with homemade spicy mayo and eel sauce (it kind of freaks me out that you can make a sauce out of eel). They were a-maz-ing! Next time we want to try doing them tempura style. My man sure knows how to keep me happy.




More please!
