I’ve been wanting to make sushi for a while now, but Lori has always been apprehensive. Usually I’d mention it and she’d reluctantly say yes, then five minutes later forget and suggest something else. And I’m fine with that because I know she doesn’t like it. But last night I finally got to make it. Perseverance.

While Lori was at work I made a ginger garlic marinade for the tofu strips and let that sit in the fridge for a few hours. When Lori got home we cooked the tofu, allowing it to absorb the extra sauce, and threw in the carrots and cucumber strips to soften them up a bit.

It was a lot of fun. Even though we couldn’t find a bamboo rolling mat, the rolls came together nice and relatively easy. Getting Lori to like sushi on the other hand, is not so easy. She tried it, but couldn’t stomach it. She had Wendy’s instead.   There are more pictures here.
