SOUNDS GOOD, AND EASY ENOUGH TO MAKE

Anago Uramaki

80% Adventurousness, 53% Complexity, 57% Heartiness

Anago Uramaki (Sea Eel Inside-Out Roll): Sweet soy-grilled sea eel paired with matsutake mushrooms wrapped in sushi rice and steamed baby asparagus, and drizzled with a little black soy molasses. We are talking top flight fusion sushi as cutting edge as as anything on Iron Chef or 4 star Michelin guide restaurants. Not that someone as hip as you would have it any other way. But this is just a brief stop on the world cuisine adventure for you, and you’re apt as not to pair it with some other carefully chosen and oh so elegant nibbles for your next flavor rush.

The “What Sushi Are You?” Test

(I was forced to edit the result, because “urimaki” made no sense. Forced, I say! Managed to keep my hands off the prose, though, even though I really would like to add hyphens. And for this dish I’d probably use unagi, which is easier to find than anago. Mmm…unagi…)
