Franziska, my German teacher who I met at the Academia, coincidentally, we were friends already on FB. She was looking for an original idea as a present for her bf, Armand. When she told me that he loves sushi, I told her about my Sushi Session. She loved the idea and immediately decided to gift him a session for Christmas. Then her lovely sister, Regula and husband Urs also joined in. So this Saturday, they came over to my place and we had a great session together.
We had so much fun creating sushi. I show them the A to Z of sushi:
-How to make the perfect rice
-Miso soup
-Japanese omelet(tamago)
-Hand roll(easiest sushi ever, great for party)
-Maki(classic rolls)
-Uramaki(inside out roll)
-Nigiri(salmon, tuna, tamago..etc)
Thank you so much for your support and for these awesome pictures Franziska!

Mrs Herrli fanning the rice cool, a very important step.
Sabine giving the omelet rolling a try.
Wrap the omelet with paper towel and a rolling mat, then place aside for it to cool down.
Mrs. Herrli made her first Temaki (Handroll) Bravo!
Temaki is so easy to make, it is great for a party, everyone can make their own, or for satisfying a sushi craving.
Remember to use your fingers to hold the filling it when you roll.
That's it! A roll is born!
My mother-in-law Colette is a gymnastic teacher, one of her student, Mrs. Herrli booked a Sushi Session for herself, her two daughters, son-in-laws and another friend the last Saturday. She lives a bit outside of Basel, in a lovely village called Seewen.
Mrs. Herrli’s house is beautiful, huge windows with a great view. And she got this lovely spacious wintergarden with a long dining table. I could just imagine the dinners she hosts there. Her kitchen is also perfect for a cooking class.
Everyone were so nice and very enthusiastic learners, Mrs. Herrli came out and said she actually never had sushi before, but thought that would be a nice idea to do with her family before Christmas. We all had so much fun, and they really enjoy the self-made Sushi experience.
All the snap shoots are by Colette. Thank you so much for your assistance! Thank you Mrs. Herrli for hosting this sushi session at your beautiful house!
