OMGAWD Actually no, I did not use the chopsticks. That is why they are in the same place in every picture. I only use them to poke extra wasabi down into the roll. And yes I know, putting extra wasabi in is OMGAW NOT PROPER GET U KICKED OUT IN JAPAN. This is not Japan, and people here are weak with the wasabi. |

Posted By: tallen702
Date Posted: 20 January 2007 at 4:25pm
Fixed! Anywho, while it isn't necessarily proper to poke extra wasabi in the roll, I don't think it matters since you weren't eating anything that would be served outside of a tourist-style restaurant in Japan anyway. I was being rather off-hand in my post, but as we all know, humor doesn't come across well on teh intranwebs. 
If you were in Nippon however, the extra wasabi would go into the shoyu. Also, nigiri should be turned upside down to avoid getting the rice soaked with shoyu. The art of sushi is more than a little bastardized here in the west. We like to pour on the heat or soak up the soy rather than appreciate the natural flavors present in the maki or nigiri. The true sushi experience is all about umami, or 'savoriness' in English, and how the different flavors play off of each other to create the overall effect. BTW, if anyone wants a darn good and very simple eel sauce recipe, pm me! ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

Tekka Maki my friend, TEKKA MAKI!!!!! Simplicity=Perfection!
As for veggie rolls, if you haven't tried Kanpyo, dear lord! it's a sweet marinated gourde. Almost like dessert sushi. Also, I'm an Inari WHORE!!!! I'd never purposefully point out sushi inaccuracies to ANYONE at a restaurant TKD, as I said, just being a bit silly with the whole thing. I hate those people as well. They were the same ones that would ask what a "gaijin" was doing behind the sushi bar when I worked for Master Yuichi Fujita. I figure, if the president and CEO of Toyota don't mind me behind the sushi bar, then some white boy from the suburbs who studied Japanese in college and visited Okinawa or Tokyo ONCE should be fine with it too... but apparently not. Go figure. While we're on the subject of Japanese food (one of my fav cuisines!) Tenzaru Soba.... LOOOOOOOVEEEEEE IT!

yeah it's really different than cooked fish If it is good, it will have little to no smell. If you go into it, thinking eating raw fish is disgusting and having a bad attitude towards it, you won't enjoy it.
I suggest you start with rolls then move into some sashimi.... salmon is a good starter fish, so is tuna. neither are very expensive. ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |

Caribbean food rocks, I put it up there with Sub-Continental (Indian, Afghan, etc). The flavors in Caribbean are more closely related to the flavors of the Indian sub-continent due to the spice trade that stopped over in the Caribbean on their way to Europe to offload their goods. Caribbean curries tend to be a bit milder than say, a Madras or Garam Masala. They also vary in color greatly as they no longer rely on the ingredients brought over from India but rather the local ingredients that accomplish the same purpose but with varied flavors. Curried goat has to be one of my favorite dishes. The trick to goat (and other "working" animals) is to braise them or stew them so that the collagen in the flesh is broken down by heat and moisture. The resulting gelatin both thickens the sauce/broth that is produced and works to lubricate the muscle fibers.
As for Jerk seasoning, there are as many seasonings as there are people who make it. The best that I've ever had were Jamaican and Haitian imports that incorporated habanero chilies. "Wet" jerk is superior to "dry" jerk as well. It isn't any wonder that TKD enjoys caribbean so much. The spiciness of the food would be right up his alley. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

When I cook goat I usually do a quick short braise in buttermilk first to get cut down on the toughness and get out some of the "game" taste. I am not a fan of curried goat as much as I am jerk goat. I take my goat, post buttermilk braise, rub on a jerk paste (or wet as you called it) and put either grill it over charcoal or put it under the broiler. Serve with some mango and lime chutney. Happy time. |

Heck yeah it's happy time! You wash it down with Red-Stripe or Bahamia?
When I lived in the Keys, I used to eat at a place called Cocoa Palms, Jamaica Me Hungry. It's on the corner of Front and Duval in Key West. Gooooood stuff! The Kingston Strip is THE BEST STEAK I've ever had. It was a slightly sweet but spicy jerk on a really nice NY strip. When I lived in B-More I had a bunch of Jamaicans who worked in my kitchen, that's where I learned about making jerk and some good chutneys. TKD, if you like chutneys, definitely try out a guava chutney, or just take some guava jelly, add a bit of key-lime juice and use it as a glaze on chicken. Good stuff! ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

Jerk steak is good. Like you said, if you put jerk on beef (or goat for that matter) it should be a sweeter jerk with more "tangy-ness", not the super strong spicy versions one would use on chicken. There is a pretty established population of Jamaicans, Dominicans, Barbadians, and Haitians in Orlando. I have my favorite places, none of which are fancy, and none have more than 4 table, but are some of the best food I have ever had. And currently I have 2 jars of guava preserves in my fridge. My dad grows guavas, mangoes, persimmons, pineapple, and papayas, and recently started preserving them as a hobby. |
