As I sit here the Sunday before school starts, next to Goose who has a raunchy case of pork farts, I scroll through the photos on my phone and decide it's best to post now.
For starters, during one day this summer, the girls got bored in my classroom. They asked it they could get out the big box of letters and bulletin board border to decorate my door.
Why of course!
It wasn't until the High School English teacher commented on the appearance of my door (when it was open), that I realized it needed a little adjustment.
One day I came home from work to this.
I kinda think the Kum and Go cup just tops it off.
And apparently I'm bored because I figured 'why not learn to make sushi right now?'
It all starts with the rice.
Sushi rice to be exact.
After it's cooked, yet while it's warm, rice wine vinegar gets splashed in along with salt and black pepper.
Then it cools to room temperature.
Meanwhile, I thought 'what the hay, lets go all out and make Ross' favorite cream cheese wontons.'
You start with wonton wrappers. Combine cream cheese with salt and sugar. Place a bit in the center, wet the edges and seal tight. Then they are fried in oil. After being fried, you cool and freeze before baking before use.
Winner winner chicken dinner!
So back to the sushi. You've got to get these seaweed wrappers. They smell like ocean, but not the Bath and Body works or laundry soap version.
Shiny side down onto a sushi mat they go.
From there you add two scoops of rice and spread it on the seaweed.
Top with fillings. I used crab, salmon, tuna, cucumber and carrot. All julliened of course.
Then you roll up very tightly. Kinda squeezing as you roll.
You're left with a log. Wrap and chill.
How awesome is that?!
