I love this combination. It's one of my favorites. The recipe intro is exactly right; making the rice is the most difficult part. Rolling, especially maki-style (as I did) is really a snap. I've been making sushi for awhile now, but I used this recipe to teach my oldest son, who LOVES sushi, how to make it. I garnished the plates with pickled daikon slices (yum), wasabi mayonnaise and pickled ginger slivers. Thanx!
