    My question is, how did the non-rice part of the seaweed stick in the end?
    I thought you need to have a bit of moist on that part?

    • @nc4501
      @nc4501 4 роки тому

      @Sunrise Boy The moisture from the rice might just be enough to make it stick lightly at the end.

    • @micaarzur
      @micaarzur 4 роки тому

      Yes the bottom part of the seaweed is dry and not sticky, but the part of seaweed that sticks to the dry piece (the other end of the seaweed) has rice on it, and thus that moisture soaks through the paper and makes that side of the seaweed sticky. So therefore the wet part of the seaweed can stick to the dry piece of seaweed.

    • @chururi8517
      @chururi8517 4 роки тому

      The non rice area will fold to the nori itself, normally we put that fold part at the bottom and wait for a few second before cutting, so that the moisture from the rice can bind them together.

      It’s just the way it’s formed. Futomaki vs hosomaki. One has the seaweed on the outside(hosomaki, also of smaller size and minimal ingredients)and the other is rice on the outside(futomaki, larger sized rolls with a handful of ingredients). California roll just states what the ingredients are.

    If you've ever had authentic sushi say in Japan then you have been ruined for life ever getting it of the same quality anywhere else. Of course there are exceptions but too many people fall in love with Quiki-Mart day old half priced sushi and they will never know the real thing. That's why so many low priced sushi buffets have done so well in this country. Also, there was a time not to long ago, that you could get high quality imitation crab (surimi) pretty much anywhere but not anymore. The stuff that's available now is dry, chalky, and mostly sweet in flavor. Just saying.
