froggyprager said...: Thanks for this, it is great. I have been eating sushi for years (in Madison at Wasabi) and never had a clue if I was doing it right. I was wondering however if the video is meant in part as some sort of joke for non-japanese. "You always have to do this ...." but if you did everyone would laugh at you.; 12/13/05, 2:17 PM

Something's fishy about the whole darn thing, if you ask me.; 12/13/05, 5:00 PM

XWL said...: I thought I was done with the whole squism business, but as Al Pacino might say, 'they keep pulling me back in'.

That mystery white flaky stuff they serve with sushi (as mentioned in the instructional video)?

Dried, compressed squism.

The secret's out. Hope I didn't ruin anybody's meal plans for the evening.

Now where is that chapter on 'gorufu'?; 12/13/05, 7:33 PM
