This is a simplified and Americanized sushi for kids to try making.
Hello Friends,
Americans are intrigued with sushi. Many people think sushi is very complicated food made with raw fish and shrimp wrapped in seaweed. Really, sushi is rice cooked, cooled, seasoned and formed into rolls to be sliced and eaten with gusto.
Sushi is fun to prepare, fairly simple, versatile, and healthy. It is one of the fast foods of Japan. Why not try it with your children or students? It would be a good precursor to a study of the country of Japan. You may find you like sushi enough to make it a part of your own home meals.
Children will love learning some foreign words and new cooking methods. They will try some new flavors and new foods--good for them. Sushi--It all starts with rice.
