Learning how to cook is not so hard. Even for those of you who believe that cooking is not a joy, after a meeting with me you will definitely find you hidden talents.

For example the first time, I learned how to make sushi in London many years ago from some Korean friends who owned a sushi restaurant opposite my house. I instantly became passionate about this simple, flavorful and healthy food. As our culinary history is a little poor on fish, I think that sushi is a blessing and served at least once a week, can work wonders due to the super low cholesterol.

Some of us could say…my repugnance to eat fish occurs naturally…cruel, disgusting...

With raw fish or not, sushi can be prepared with boiled or fried eggs, avocado, cucumber, various types of greens, crab sticks or shrimp cooked Tempura style, and the list goes on.

For those of you who don't know or weren't interested to know, the technical meaning of the word sushi in Japanese is sweet vinegar rice. Talking history, somewhere in the 7th century before reaching Japan, vinegar rice was used in China to ferment and preserve fish. From that moment, rice went all the way and reached an incredible variety. Right now, some expensive restaurants in Paris "fused" sushi, already preparing very sophisticated things like "foie gras" sushi and so on.
