    Surprised they didn’t complain about the sushi being a roll of canned tuna with cream cheese. I wouldn’t worry about the ranch.

          How do you make mayonnaise?

          The recipe I use calls for 3 egg yolks, 1 tbsp oil, ½tsp lemon juice, ½ tsp lime juice, ¼tsp sugar, pinch of salt.

          Whip together in a bowl or jar, it won’t emulsify if there’s a thunderstorm coming.

          Somehow the yolks turn white. I assume this is due to the proteins getting stretched.

          Source: The whitest kid you know, and I’m American as Mac n Cheese.

          You can add one of the egg whites if you’re making an aioli from scratch. Otherwise, they can be used for merengue.

    Reminds me that like the California roll, Philadelphia roll and ig using stuff like cream cheese, just wasn’t a thing in Japan, they are American things, but as Japense tourists came to america and had them, they started wanting them back home and some people are pissed Japense sushi is being “Americanized”

      TIL about American sushi. I was wondering why the sushi looked weird, sushi typically has seaweed outside where I live.

      Yep, rolls originally weren’t a thing in Japan. Sushi rolls started with the California Roll, which was invented in Little Tokyo, LA. Traditional Japanese sushi is just rice and fish, with freshly-grated Wasabi sandwiched in between.

        rolls are a thing. it’s different though, with seaweed wrap on the outside, instead of rice. it’s called makizushi.

          You might want to re-read my comment because I carefully worded it. I know that rolls are currently a thing in Japan.

            i know what you meant. i was saying rolls started in Japan, it wasn’t invented by the American. The American just invented a specific style of rolls that have rice on the outside.

    Food doesn’t evolve in a vacuum. I love how cultures meeting also means developing music, traditions, music and food. Vietnamese is fusion of Asia and France. Viet-Cajun is vietnamese in the south of US. And then you get the marvelous vier-cajun-viet! British Indians developing the food.

    Salmon sushi is Norwegian (ish) so different sauce on sushi…bring it on
