Sushi and the curse of lunch

I was thinking about it the other day. Sushi is really a great lunchtime foodgroup. Why? Because it is versatile and really sushi is rice and therefore blandish. Seems a bit odd I know but there are fridge benefits to being bland.

For example, I made sushi and took it to work for lunch yesterday. 2 rolls of four pieces because I have always felt that 6 is just not quite enough. Its a little bit like subway 6 inch is too small, 12 inch always leaves me feeling bloated.

So I made this sushi. 2 cups of rice worth or about 8 rolls. But I just had the rice in the nori, with no flavour. That might sound gross but think about it. Sushi is just that with another usually subtle flavour added in. So I had plain rice. Cheap, efficient and easily transportable. I spiced it up with a nice tube of wasabi, some homemade sushi ginger and a jar of gardiner. Pickled vegetables to the common man. A mix of capsicum, carrots, cauliflower and pearl onions. A mild flavour but when all added together with a permium soy sauce, lunchw as about 2 points max, very filling, easy to make, tasty and a great trial for the future.

I will have to consult with the Larousse about how to make my own Gardiner and will figure a recipe and post here. But it is one fantastic lunchtime feed hat will be staying.
