so, we're doing sushi, eh?

I was never big on photographing my food but I found this one particularly pretty. It was over a decade ago, and I don't remember what restaurant it was. Somewhere in NYC.

Garnishing with inedible items: amateur AF. 🤦🏽‍♂️

It's sue her, not sushi.

At what point does it not become sushi when it's deconstructed like that? Don't get me wrong, I make sushi-bake at home. But even then the ingredients are still integrated into one big unrolled sushi, not completely separated like a rice meal.

The primary ingredient that makes it sushi is the rice.

I think by definition sushi is "vinegar seasoned rice topped with fish, egg, or vegetable" which this is.

Curiously, what is a sushi-bake? I'm afraid to search for it.

what is a sushi-bake?

It's one big deconstructed "unrolled" sushi roll and baked in the oven. Instead of a roll, you just layer the ingredients.

Here's the most recent one I made:
