So i love avocado sushi from my local sushi place except i always thought it seemed a little creamy. Then today when i got to the bottom of the roll there was a blob of something whiteish poking out the bottom, it looked like mayonaise but when i tasted it i couldn't really tell what i was tasting. I didn't ask the shop owners as there is a bit of a language barrier. lol
HAHA!! Yeah, there is not a lot of sushi where they don't use mayonaise. I got caught on it too because i love the stuff but i don't eat it anymore or get them to make it fresh x0x0
Which, for the purposes of clarification and future reference, is also called 'kewpie'. Man I loved that stuff... oh well, soy mayo tastes awesome too!
I wonder if they would mind making it fresh for me. I hate being an annoying customer. With any luck my brother in law bought me the Sush Ezi http://www.sushezi.com/ for christmas and i'll start make it more often from home. I tried making it with the rolling mat thing and it was pretty crappy looking. lol
Im so glad you posted about this, I too thought my sushi was tasting creamy but I asked the shop owners and they said no mayonaise was in it!
I hope they didnt understand me rather than just lie to me.
Everytime i inspected the roll closer it didn't look like there was anything in it, anything that was creamy seemed to just be a bit of avocado that had gone a little mushed, if it wasn't for the blob sticking out the bottom i would of had no idea.
ON THE UPSIDE!!!
i did discover my 1 year old daughter LOVES sushi, watching her rip into it was SOOO CUTE!!!
It's caught me out too! Originally, I thought it was white goo from the rice (nice, haha!), then saw a big dollop of the stuff at the bottom and realised it was mayo! Eck!
I've found it varies between sushi joints so if you see anything creamy, don't eat it. All the sushi joints I've been to have been happy to make me one w/o mayo.
