First time i tried making sushi and this recipe made it very difficult only becuase it gives no measurements, how thick should the rice be or how wide the nori should be, so i think maybe adding these in would be very helpfull. But i like the Possible Sushi Filling that was a good way to quickly tell people what they can put in there sushi!!!Reply
