About this listen

 Claire teaches home sushi craft with honest realism, starting with essential equipment where a sharp knife matters most and expensive specialty gear isn't necessary. Master fish sourcing at Japanese grocery stores like Mitsuwa or high-end grocers, understanding that most "fresh" sushi fish was properly flash-frozen on boats. Learn perfect sushi rice preparation including short-grain Japanese rice selection, the five-rinse washing ritual, one-to-one water ratio cooking, and seasoning with one-third cup vinegar, two tablespoons sugar, one teaspoon salt per two cups rice, achieving body temperature for serving. Master nigiri hand-forming technique with tezu hand water and gentle pressure that holds shape but melts in mouth. Learn maki rolling with proper nori placement, thin rice layer, and clean knife cuts between pieces. Understand temaki hand rolls, chirashi bowls, and gunkan battleship style. Host successful sushi parties with timeline and shopping lists while embracing the reality check that you'll never reach master-level but can genuinely make impressive, delicious homemade sushi.
