Personally I love both, especially in combination!
Green tea: any kind of green tea is fine, I just request that this doesn't turn into a "What is green tea" thread.
We all know what Sushi is though, right? Of course it is Raw fish, right?
Nope!
Sushi is a japanese food that sometimes involves raw fish, but the raw fish is not what makes it sushi. The way the rice is prepared is what makes it Sushi. They make the rice as normal, but before molding it the odd ways they do for sushi, they add vinegar.
Yup, its the vinegar that sets sushi off from other japanese foods.
I'll list off some Sushi I had last time I was at Sushi Ichiban(a local Suchi restaurant, the name means "The best Sushi"). This was a week or 2 ago.
Start with the rolls:
Rolls: In general they round, have seaweed on the outside holding in the rice, and having the main ingredients in the middle.
California roll: Your basic American roll, you will not see this one in Japan. It has as a main ingredient: imitation crab and some vegetables.
Inside out California roll: Same thing as the previous except the seaweed is wrapped on the inside of the rice instead of the outside.
Crisp California roll: Same as inside out one, except for they dip it in the hot oil to deep fat fry it just enough to make the outside a little crisp.
Kappa roll: only main ingredient is cucumber. Cucumber is in the middle. I am told this one is mentioned in the Saiyuki manga.
Spider rolls: Some odd vegetables and deep fat fried softshell crab. They arrange the crab legs so that some is poking out the sides like a dead spider. This one is a very special roll and a personal favorite of mine.
Rock and Roll, roll: If I remember right, this one had mango in it and some other odd veggies.
Oyster roll: This one has oyster in it and roe(fish eggs). Tasted good, but I am not a fan of roe.
Nebraska roll: This one you will only see in NE. It has cooked steak in it. Yum!
Now for the real sushi:
real sushi: This is not what they call it, its my personal joke, its just that these aren't rolls. They have a little rectangle of rice with some sort of seafood on top.
White fish: a slab of raw white fish.
Tuna: A slab of raw Tuna, this one is the most tolerable by americans as we are so used to tuna anyway
Eel: A slab of eel held on be a string of seaweed and covered in soy sauce.
Squid: YUM!! A piece of raw squid. Very chewy, you have to really like sushi to enjoy this piece because it won't be leaving your mouth anytime soon.
Salmon: A true test of a sushi goers mettle. Salmon is so foreign to us that it is hard to handle.
For any of you thinking of an excursion out for sushi. Go with friends. that way you can get more variety as the rolls come in groups varying from 4-10. Start with rolls as they are easier to eat. If you have a group that you all know can really handle sushi, go for the more adventersome things like squid.
The reason their is such a variety is that 8 of us went together last time. 5 of us could handle sushi, and we still got a large variety.
I have only been out for sushi 5 times in my life. First time I only ate one piece of sushi and went and threw up in the bathroom.
So, it is an aquired taste. Try and try again.
One last thing is: Sushi is EXPENSIVE!!! Expect to drop at least 25 dollars for a decent meal of sushi, even when splitting. I spent 30 last time.
COOL! I love it!
