Local Style Makizushi (Rolled Sushi)

Hey Everyone!
Join my cousins, Aly and Billy and I as we learn from grandma how to make makizushi!
Sushi Rice:
5 C. rice
1/3 C. Japanese vinegar
5 T. sugar
*1 1/2 t. salt
Tamagoyaki:
4 eggs
1/2 t. sugar
2 T. milk
*1/4 t. salt
Tuna:
2 T. shoyu
2 T. mirin
3 cans of tuna
These salt measurements are reduced because grandma cannot eat salty foods. You can add more salt to fit your tastes.
Thank you to Billy and Aly for learning with me! And thank you to our camera man, Brett!
Thinking of you, grandpa. We love you!
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

One more comment, in Nagoya, Japan area, we make Makizushi with cooked and seasoned Kanpyo(gourd strips), Pickled red ginger, Boiled spinach, egg omelet strips, cuke strips, cooked shiitake mushrooms, and sometimes pink sweet Denpu. Isn't it interesting everybody make them traditionally from where they are from.

I would love to see that!

We live in California and we also make makizushi with the ingredients you use, miyubail. The tuna looks interesting. We have never used tuna in makizushi, but I bet it's great!

Hi Cari! Did this recipe make that whole tray of sushi your grandma was stacking? Or did you double the recipe for your large ohana? I guess I'm basically asking how many maki sushi rolls did this recipe make?

[@Caritaira]

We made this video awhile back... but I believe we doubled it since we made a lot.

Now a days in Japan you can buy already prepared makizushi at the supermarket deli but when I was little Makizushi and Inarizushi were made of scratch. My mom and every other friends' moms made them for special occasions like birthday party, school field day, atheletic day, etc. I made my own from scrach and realized what a hard work that was. Thanks all the moms out there.

[@Caritaira]

Haha, yes! That is amazing to hear.
