🍣✨ 5 tips for the perfect sushi night at home

Do you dream of restaurant-quality sushi – but in your own kitchen? 🏠 Good news: it's surprisingly easy to do!

Home-made sushi is not only delicious, but also a fun and social way to spend an evening. With a little preparation, you can be sure to succeed and enjoy a restaurant-quality experience in your own kitchen.

And best of all – My Sushi Kit by Yami Sushi includes all the ingredients and tools you need. Plus, you can learn more with our online sushi course ! 💻

Here are five tips to help you create the perfect sushi evening!

1️⃣ Rice is the heart of everything 🍚

Rinse the sushi rice several times, cook over low heat and season with sushi vinegar. Always cool the rice at room temperature (not in the refrigerator!) and keep it covered with a damp cloth – this way the texture remains perfect.
👉 My Sushi Kit includes premium sushi rice and ready-made sushi vinegar, so you're sure to succeed!

2️⃣ Invest in fresh ingredients 🐟🥒🥑

High-quality, sashimi-grade fish makes a sushi night an experience. Add fresh vegetables like cucumber and avocado to your rolls. Remember the classics: soy, wasabi, and pickled ginger – sushi isn't sushi without them!
👉 All of these can be found in My Sushi Kit (soy, wasabi, ginger).

3️⃣ The right tools work wonders 🎋🔪

Bamboo sushi mat = perfect rolls. Sharp knife = clean pieces. Dip the knife in water between each cut to keep the pieces nice and crisp.
👉 The sushi mat is included in My Sushi Kit , so the tools are right at your fingertips.

4️⃣ Make sushi a time to be together 💕👨👩👧👦

Making sushi is most fun with a group! Everyone can fill their own roll with their own favorites – salmon, shrimp, tofu, cream cheese or spicy mayonnaise. Cooking together will make the evening unforgettable.
👉 If you want to learn more together, join our online sushi course – you'll learn from a master and cook at home at the same time!

5️⃣ Create the right atmosphere 🎶🍵🥂

Set the table in a Japanese style: small soy bowls, chopsticks, and beautifully arranged rolls. Add some soothing music in the background and serve green tea or a glass of bubbly on the side.

💡 Sushi master's tip: Keep the flavors simple and focus on technique - the best sushi comes from fresh ingredients and careful preparation.

👉 Get started easily: order My Sushi Kit by Yami Sushi and take the online course – this way you can have the perfect sushi night, even if you're a first-time cook! 🎉
