Week 3 of my yearlong sushi making journey


LOL at week 1 (3rd pic)

On a whim I’ve committed myself to 52 weeks of making sushi on Friday night… Looking forward to learning more and more about the craft, history and flavor profiles throughout the challenge. Who knows maybe I’ll treat myself to a trip to Japan to celebrate finishing.

I’ve learned a lot from this sub since week one .. thanks for the tips and inspiration.

Question: what are some major ah-ha moments you’ve had when making sushi at home? Any insight is appreciated.

Next up is getting a better knife, as I am working with *shit* tools in this Airbnb I’m in 😑 then appropriate dishes, etc.

All about those baby steps baby! Also, I never knew miso soup comes in a powdered packet? It was souper yummy.

  1. Looking good! Always remember that plating is important in sushi. Adding that sauce in a gorgeous nice way is tough but watch some videos and chip away at it

  2. Having a sharp knife really makes a difference, even if its just a cheap one from Amazon.

    Also, I used to make sushi almost every week (pandemic hobby) and I did get kind of burnt out on it and then it wasn’t as fun so be careful not to push yourself too hard on it. You’ll definitely improve a lot in a short period of time with that much practice!

  3. Hello , sushi chef here , if you have any questions I’ll be happy to share some knowledge
