Jepun Kia Foodie

My favourite Unagi Rice with Pickled Ginger & tamago (That's the name for the sweetened telur in Jepun kia language, right? How I remember the name? From Tamagotchi !! - the handheld digital pet game. Although I never played the game, at least I know the name)..

Fish Roe Sushi (or Gunkan?). Anyway, the name is secondary.. Savouring the yummy food is my main concern ;)

Some sort of sushi or gunkan.. Not only I forgotten the name, I forgotten what is it too.. some sort of sea creature?

  35. Pretty photos Chen, bringing me back to the old days. ^_^

    Picture one is Unagi Don = Eel rice. An authentic version usually don't have the Tamagoyaki = Japanese omelet.

    Picture two is commonly known as Ebikko in Malaysia. However, in Japan, few people know this name. They are more common call it Tobikko = Flying Fish Roe. The fresh Tobikko is one of my favorite.

    Picture 3 : Chuka Wakame = Chinese Style Seaweed, which is not a common sushi in Japan. The reason why it is called Chinese style is because of the vinegar, chili and sesame oil that is used for pickling this ingredient. I like this one, but seldom has place that can do it perfect.

    In common, Gunkan is a common term to describe a sushi that has the Nori (Seaweed sheet) wrap around it (like your picture 2 & 3). The main reason why they do this is to make the easily fall apart ingredient to hold well on the Shari (a word to describe rice in sushi world).

    Hehe... if you want to impress people with your "knowledge" in Sushi, here are a few terms you can fool them. :P

    Shari = Rice
    Murasaki = Soysauce
    Namida = Wasabi
    Gari = Pickled ginger

    Oops... sorry for the really keypo comment. Hope you don't mind I write so long comment once a while ar~~~ My bad habit when concerning food facts.
