I have a rice cooker and I know how to make rice... Is sushi rice the same as regular rice?
I also have rice vinegar... I'm not too sure about how/when to add that.
Kombu... is it even necessary?
Wooden sushi barrel? What?

All these crazy sushi books I bought have their own variations on the topic. But I just want to know the easiest, simplest, quickest way to make sushi rice... and have it not be crappy.

I tried it once and it was too slippery and slimey and.. yea. It didn't work very well when I tried flipping the nori over (so that the rice would on the outside of the roll)... Maybe there's something wrong w/ the seaweed? It seemed to be really flimsy and tore easily..


Argh, i thought making sushi would be easy!

I vaguely remember something about having to put a cube of animal fat inside to cook properly? I'm not in love with the idea of lard cubes is it ok to skip that, i'm going to fry/grill them in a pan.

I was wondering where I can get some cooking equipment like sauce pans, whisks, etc. But I don't want to spend too much money.

I'm not even sure why my house doesn't already have some of this stuff... I guess we wouldn't use it that much. Bleh, I'm just not as skilled as my mom and need some of these noobish devices. Hahaha... help?

I'm thinking of throwing a dinner party. Do I serve dessert immediately after dinner before the guests get up from the table, or do I wait, let them walk around and mingle/socialize, and then call them back to the table for dessert? I really don't know--never been to a 'real' dinner party!

And what if I have a man over for dinner? Same thing?

I have looked everywhere for this, but can't find it. Hopefully somebody knows what I am talking about!

In India (and Indian restaurants) they generally serve candied fennel seeds in lieu of dinner mints. I would like to make this, but I'm not really sure how. Also, I know that sometimes there are also anise seeds in there as well; are there other additions I could make?
