Hi everyone, I am Davy Devaux and this is my assistant.
My name is Kiki, and today Davy is going to be teaching me how to make sushi because I
have never made sushi before, but he makes it look really easy.
And then she is going to teach you guys how to make it.
That's right. Okay.
Full Moon Sushi Roll Recipe Let's get down to business. So the first thing
we want to do is get our prep ready. We're going to cut our tuna and cut our cucumber.
With the knife we have to have a good steady grip here at the front, with your index and
your thumb, and then just hold it lightly. All we want to do is we want to get cucumber
slices, we want to get an 1/8th, so here I've got a 1/2 which I'm going to first cut in
half. Then we take this half and we are going to put our knife at a 45° angle so that we
get our 1/8th and that leaves with me something like this.
Now let's cut some tuna. So I am going to take this piece here, it's a really nice piece
of tuna. You can see because it's got a lot of the fat in it or at least that's the way
I like it. Grab our knife again, what we want here is to get a strip of about 1.5cm by 1.5cm
so that would be 3/5 of an inch by 3/5 of an inch which is about this. Cut this piece
again in half. So we want to get two strips that look a bit like this.
Okay now we've got our prep ready, we're going to start with the rolling. Take your mat,
place it in front of you with your seaweed sheet, you want to get it horizontally so
you can see these lines, place it like this. What we're going to do is we're going to place
the rice on here. We want to cover about three and a half strips. You can see it's actually
marked for you so it's pretty easy. When dealing with sushi rice, Davy says always
wet your hands. And now we're going to take 90g of sushi rice, 90g is about 3oz, we want
to spread it evenly without squashing the rice. So we want it to be nice and fluffy,
so with your fingers you just separate it out to the edges.
Once you've laid out your rice and you've got it looking something like this, you're
going to take your cucumber piece and we're going to put it with the skin facing the rice
and we're going to push it back so that we're getting somewhat of a rice edge, pushing back
nice and evenly. Okay, next up, take the tuna slice, place them in the middle of your rice.
Okay and now we are ready to roll. So use your mat, take it, what we're going to want
to do is get this edge of the sea weed here just to touch the edge of the cucumber here,
so we're going to close it off. Use the mat and roll it over like this -- there you go.
And now we're just going to press down to make sure it seals.
Okay to finish off, we're going to flip over the roll and we're going to compress it once
again with the help of the mat. Remember, because we want that tear shape we're going
to press down harder where the cucumber is. Roll and press. Okay let's see -- looking
good. Alright so first we're going to cut the edges
off, remember tight grip at the front and then holding the knife loosely, what we're
going to do is we're going to start with the heel of the knife and cut. And we are going
to cut it in eight pieces, so first in half then in half again, and each of these in half.
Okay, let's see what we've got. Ta-da, here is our full moon sushi roll. Okay,
so that's it, that was my first time making sushi. I have got to say it was easy, it was
fun, so I suggest you guys try it too. To watch more of these videos don't forget to
