Cutting Sushi Made Simple!

Posted by Ryan On October - 21 - 2009

CutBoxSizedHere at HSC we are all about making sushi at home simpler so… Check out my favorite new sushi making utensil! This box is part of a larger Sushi Chef brand kit that I can no longer live without.  Once you are done rolling your favorite maki roll just place it inside the slotted box and cut with your sushi knife.  It holds the roll so much better then you can with your hand and even has a top piece to help you mold the roll back to a nice round shape when complete.  After cutting the box separates to allow you to easily roll your maki out on to your serving plate.  I have even used it to cut inside out rolls.  Once rolled place the whole inside out roll including the plastic wrap inside the box and slice.  As long as you lay the plastic open there is enough of it left to again roll your maki out on to your serving tray and pull back the plastic wrap.  Find this must have item Here or shop for similar items in the HSC online store.

What can a good sushi knife do for you?

Posted by Ryan On September - 27 - 2009

SushiKnifeSizedI have recently purchased a sushi knife to test it against my regular chefs knife.  This is knife has holes along the blade to reduce friction and it is Teflon coated stainless steel to reduce sticking. I found significant improvement in the shape and consistency of my cut sushi rolls using this style knife! It works wonderfully at slicing raw fish as well.  If you are going to be making sushi  at home HSC recommends a good sushi knife as a must have item in your kitchen.  A little cold water on the blade helps to further reduce friction and keep rice and other ingredients in place during slicing.  Remember SLICING back and forth. Pushing down will crush your roll and make your finished product difficult to handle.  Find this and similar knives available in our Online Store today…
