I'm having some california rolls for lunch and I've heard that you are suppose to mix the wasabi in the soy sauce and eat a slice of ginger between each piece of sushi. Is this true?

Nah, just pour it all over the rolls and eat 'em w/a fork :D

There's no right way. Get in touch with your inner barbaric American. Spread some butter on 'em first!

What I do: put a chunk of wasabi in the soy. Mash some of it into the soy so that it looks kinda muddy. Dip rolls in mud and enjoy.

My limited understanding is that the ginger is a palate cleanser. So I take a slice when I go from one type of sushi to another.

I would think you would just eat it how you like it...try em a few different ways...this is precisely why your girlfriend has your balls...because you can't even make a simple decision like how to eat your damn lunch!
Are you just pissed that he didn't use a big "c" in Kalifornia?

BTW, Stosh, are you a sushi virgin (yes I'm hitting on you)? California rolls are just filler. Jesus is right on. . . go straight to the good stuff (spicy tuna, salmon, yellowtail, snapper).

Damn, the tacos are wearing off. I wish I had time for sushi today.

Listen to-late-N8 why don't you go read the newspaper and report on things in a timely manner before you return to your old standbye ball snatcher jokes.

LOL!!! I can't believe he opened himself up like that ;)

PS - You gotta have some warm saki to enjoy with your sushi (and I just happen to have some--lol).

Throw the Sushi in the nearest trash and go get yourself a burger. :D That is how I would eat sushi.

I know it is cool now that everyone is doing it but.....yuck.

teriyaki chicken or beef...blech! :blah: on the fish....
For a while I use to be one of the biggest red meat eater - with the quality of red meat nowadays, I slowed down quite a bit. I'm lucky if I even eat red meat once every 2 months.

I am not a big seafood fan as it is....I am not doing the Sushi bit, again. :monkey:
I am the biggest NON-seafood fan...blech...I even get sick to my stomach seeing people eat sushi...I was watching Acadian and Joe Pozer eat this one stuff...the texture looked like a thick raw chicken breast...I can only imagine what it felt like to bite into it...I'm gonna hurl just thinking about it.

I don't know if there's a "right" way. Personally I do the wasabi-soy mud dip with ginger between different types.

But a "California Roll" is not sushi :dead:

I wasn't either till I tried some. It's like a flavor explosion in your mouth. Plus it's better than eating fries and a burger which I had for dinner last night.

I don't think it's a cup, but it could be used in a pinch ;) It was actually a gift from my uncle.

Tried it and can honetsly say I am not a fan...no biggie. Doesn't mean I can't make fun of people who are eating that crab food. :)

The burger was to be funny as it is about as anti-sushi as you can get.

Actually screw the sushi and just swig the sake (That, I have not tried) Why waste your time with fillers? Go straight to the booze for lunch. :D

Deficiency of red blood cells...I knew a couple of hard core vegetarians that became anemic and the doctor told them to eat red meat a certain number of times a week to replenish it...they were horrified. I would be too if someone told me I had to eat fish to replenish something in my body...I'd die I think.
ah...that's not good!

*Acadian gonna eat a big slab of red meat for lunch*

;)
