I am taking a friend/co-worker to lunch tomorrow...she is trying sushi for the first time. I am pretty new to it, and I am not sure what to order (my boyfriend introduced it to me, I always get what he orders!!) I love the stuff, but she is hesitant. What would be a good choice to start her off with??
The tradition is to start with Medican sushi*....california roll is non-threatening and gets one used to the idea of how this stuff works.
Oh, one important thing. If you mix up a batch of soy and wasabi for dipping, a cut roll gets one bit of a corner dipped in the sauce. The regular sushi--nigirizushi--do not dip the rice in the sauce: turn it over and dip a little of the fish in the sauce.
Dipping the rice into the soy sauce is like ordering a hamburger and slathering ketchup all over the outside of the bun. Besides, the rice will fall apart and make a mess. Messiness is anathema to the zen of sushi. Go to a sushi bar, enjoy, but please do not act like a barbarian. I have little patience for Japanese peoples
