    Fish questions

    Life with out sushi- no way. Ask your fish guy ( monger) where the seafood comes from. We get very little fish from japan. I did buy a ton of nori sheets when the nuclear plant blew. Dilution is the solution to pollution. The ocean will reduce the radiation danger.

    nori burns very quickly. You will not be able to cook tuna wrapped in nori. Banana leafs work better for pouch cooking. Sushi means vinegared rice.

One slice for two regular burgers or one big burger. Try it and you will be surprized how tender the burger will be. Does not taste like meatloaf.

    Marinating for more than 24 hours

    Low acidic marinades can be used for 48 hours but anything with a high acid level will cook any protein. Lemon juice, strong wines and vinegars are best when used for short marinades.
