Today, a good friend of mine and a Chef invited me to create a new sushi masterpiece in his kitchen. He asked me what would come with tofu, salmon, tuna, squid, olive and sesame oil, togarashi or chilli flakes and a light soy sauce. I said let’s try anything out of the ordinary. So, he deep-fried the tofu like agedashi style and made the fish into sashimi. He also prepared the sauce for the final touch. His sauce recipe he told me came from his former Japanese chef and he will share it to me after 10 years, he jokingly told me. We’re half way to finish. Assembled it the way he imagined. His first taste puts his sauce perfectly, garnished with green onions, sesame seeds and togarashi or chilli flakes. After that he wipes the plate for excess oil. Done, ready to take the picture and for the final judgement on how’s it taste like. Taste great, sauce is just perfect and the tofu is silky and delicious. I might add a little wasabi, must be much greater! Taste so good.

Roll, roll, roll, california roll

You are looking at the picture of my very first, I made it myself with of course the help of my wife =) the California roll. This sushi roll is so tasty, the mango is sweet and the kani or crab stick made a perfect combination for this all time favourite. Shrimp roe adds a little salty taste to this indulging appetizer, too. Another version of this sushi roll is that instead of putting mango in it is replacing it with avocado. Avocado is also perfect for futomaki or the thick roll. In cooking rice for the sushi, you must know the secret recipe for the seasoning. I will tell it to you later on. Back to California roll, you can spice up this dish by adding like a salad on top or simply mix in tempura flakes. So are you going to a Japanese restaurant to try it now? Enjoy!

"Where's Daddy gone?"

These were the words recently came out of Blanket or Prince Michael Jackson II, who is inquiring about his father.

On a news mag the King of Pop's youngest son is still confused about where the late superstar is.

It appears that, with his tender age, Blanket is missing his daddy and the little boy thinks that his dad is just enjoying a vacation somewhere.

Michael Jackson died unexpectedly after a cardiac arrest last month, but his seven-year-old son is too young to understand that his father has passed away.

Jackson's long-time friend, Mark Lester, was with blanket during the star's memorial service in Staple's Center Los Angeles earlieer this month when he had to answer the hearbreaking question.

Lester says, "it is obvious to me that blanket is still unsure about what exactly happened to his father. He said, 'where's daddy gone? on holidat?' It was rhetorical question and it broke my heart."

During the memorial, Blanket was holding a copy of the memorial program and the toy figure of his dad. he doesn't seem to grasp what the memorial was all about.
