Hi Carol,


 CS> That and 'hand-jobs' which are rice layered thinly in your hand then
 CS> filled with 'goodies' (roe is my favorite) and enclosed then with the
 CS> hand so the goodies are inside. the shape of the hand should be clear
 CS> but mine dont turn out quite as well, faltering slightly off perfect.
 CS> (hand Sushi might be a traditional name).

RH> I have heard that term over here, but I sort of thought the meaning wa
RH> sushi eaten out of hand, no chopsticks and not the "pan sushi" (a pan,
RH> about 9"x9" with the rice, etc in layers, no seaweed wrappings) I've
RH> seen at pot lucks from time to time.

 CS> Kinda a local joke.  Hand Sushi might be the real name if tranlated
 CS> right I think.  Yes, there is also a 'pan sushi' and it's just like

I don't ask about translations (no need to); I just like eating it. (G)
I might ask about some ofthe ingredients if I'm not sure what they are.

 CS> you say.  I dont think it's really 'traditional' but there is a
 CS> version in a bowl which is almost identical and is 'traditional'.

Interesting that a bowl sushi would be traditional but not neccessarily
a pan one.


RH> with the noodles.  It's basic enough that Charlotte could probably mak
RH> it if she can cook the noodles on the stove top.

 CS> Yes.  She's close to that too but just flat out not quite tall enough
 CS> to want to try it.  The rest other than the noodles, she can manage.

RH> No step stool handy?  Or, if somebody else could cook/drain the noodle
RH> then they could be popped into the fridge with a bit of water to keep
RH> them from sticking together.  Then she could easily assemble it and he
RH> it in the microwave.  It would take a bit longer than if the noodles
RH> were fresh cooked, hot but not signifigantly.

 CS> She could manage that version I think but tonight was spent just
 CS> showing her how to make egg salad.  Don's working enough that she's
 CS> getting more interested in making simple stuff herself.

Good for her--saves Don from the attacks of the hungry kid when he gets
home too. (G)
