I post the Japanese spelling of a sushi item, (e.g.: ebi = shrimp, unagi = eel, etc.)

Temaki
(No peeking your menus)

I love sushi and I like the idea, however I think we'll finish this game too soon - there are not that many ingredients.

So... I'm honest, and using only my memory. Temaki - is it a kind of Japanese omelette? Or it's a salmon?

A big roll made with a whole nori sheet, so that you need to pick it with your hand and not your chopsticks (te = hand, maki= sushi roll)

Should I post the next one? Kappamaki.

Temaki is a cone, much like a maki but cone-shaped.
Unagi

Timothy Smith · 07-07-2009, 08:01 PM

Is kappamaki maki?

Kazeko · 07-08-2009, 06:53 AM

Yes! Te is a hand! Like in "karate"

Tim, unagi = eel, you posted it in the beginning

aelle, hmm... I believe it's another kind of roll. Can't recall what kappa means except some kind of their mystic water gnome

Anyone?

aelle · 07-08-2009, 10:10 AM

It is a kind of maki... more guesses?

Kazeko · 07-08-2009, 12:06 PM

What kind of fresh water creature Japanese people would call "kappa"... Don't know...

Kazeko · 07-08-2009, 02:44 PM

In the end of the day I gave up and cheated. It's not that obvious:

"The name "Kappa Maki" comes from Japanese mythology. It is said, that small goblins called "Kappa" living in water like cucumber as favorite food."

So it's "Kappa's Maki"

Ah, here's one. Sunomono
