Скачать или смотреть [How to Make] Gunkan-maki Sushi

Hello everyone, this is TAKE. This time, I got some nori, seaweed, from a friend from high school. I will use the nori to make gunkan-maki sushi.
I would also like to make nigiri sushi with the rest of the ingredients.

What is Gunkan-maki Sushi?
There are three main types of sushi: nigirizushi, makizushi, and gunkan-maki.
Gunkan-maki is made by wrapping sushi rice in seaweed and topping it with seafood items not usually found in nigiri-zushi. It is named after its resemblance to a battleship. Gunkan is a battleship in English.

History
Gunkan-maki was first created in 1941 by Mr. Juji Imada, the first owner of the famous Ginza sushi restaurant Kyubei, when a regular customer asked him to make sushi with sea urchin that the guest had brought from Hokkaido.

Although unpopular at the time, it has become a regular sushi staple. Pioneers always have to face outside criticism, don't they?

Make sushi rice.
Add the sushi vinegar and stir gently with an uchiwa fan to allow air between the rice and to prevent the rice from becoming sticky."
Sear the nori quickly over a flame, as it has a very nice aroma when quickly seared. If you are not careful, it will tear right off like this. This was my mistake.


Cut the nori into pieces about 15 cm long and 3 cm high.
Round the Shari rice in an oval shape.
Roll the nori around the rice. The trick is to roll it so that one side opens up.
Roll one more small oval rice in the same way. Arrange the nori so that the open sides fit on the same side.
Once the base of the gunkan-maki is completed, place Neta, like fish

In this case, we also want to put takuan (pickled radish) on top. So first, cut the takuan into strips.
The thicker the Takuan is, the better the texture will be.
Place the tuna on the base.
For the other dish, put the tuna and the takuan on top of the base."
Gunkan-maki is very easy to make. Place all your favorite materials on the sushi base and have fun.
