AshPS Posted June 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 Found you! (finally!) Hope you had a good week 1! On the sushi thing, I had sashimi just last weekend. It's tasty. Yay! Not too shabby, thank you! Well, like I said, my boys adore it. I think it's more of a mental thing for me as far as texture. Like eating undercooked chicken. Yeah, that was gross...And no, I didn't do it intentionally. Level 6 Pixie Assassin Rangerish Adventurer Current Challenge: Guess What??

Swampling Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Good morning, Ash! I'm glad to hear you survived! Now enjoy the well-earned DOMS for the next two days? And maybe collect some new so you'll have a complete set of DOMS after the next couple of workouts?

AshPS Posted June 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Good Morning my friend! Tomorrow is Plyometrics. No DOMS, just pain, lol. Next set of DOMS will come Wednesday with Arm & Shoulder Day, because I obviously didn't work them enough today. Same to you.....enjoy the music! No? HUGS!

TennisGeek Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Raw fish is so good! You must try it. If your raw fish smells fishy, then don't eat it raw. But if it smells like nothing, then eat away! Mmmm, some salmon and tuna sashimi (just the raw fish) is awesome. The best sushi I've ever had was at a restaurant near the emperor's palace in Tokyo.It's was a kohada, sauteed in sake and touch of rice vinegar. It was absolutely heavenly. Not all sushi is raw. Some fish (like mackerel) and shellfish are often cooked in some way.Shrimp has to be poached which brings out more sweetness. My yelp account's one liner is "Super market sushi is not sushi!".I don't want to be snobby but I have some grudge about sub-par sushi widely available in States. Tuna in particular, non-Japanese places don't age the fish properly.Fresh tuna's fat does not melt and it tastes more bloody.Many restaurants don't follow the basics of sushi making.So, sushi is totally overrated.

My 2 yen. Oh I know that not all sushi is eaten raw. Eel and shellfish are usually cooked. Shrimp doesn't taste like much unless cooked a bit. I also agree that the quality of sushi isn't as good here in the US. What bugs me is the over use of crazy sauces and crunchy bits. While tasty sometimes, it gets overbearing. I've given up on anything that has been too "americanized" I dream of going to Japan and experiencing the real thing. 1 Pinterest: Alex's Paleo Wins - Recipes on Pinterest Instagram: alexcold23 MFP: dalex916 Link to comment

GingaNinja Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 I have an american friend who raves about how good the sushi is there, I am not sure I believe her, we can get hole of very fresh fish here so sushi is lovely, but I get why you don't like the idea, some of the textures and stuff can be a bit funny. I didn't eat it for years, but hope you get a chance to have a good experience some day 1 Be More Ninja Current Challenge Instagram Link to comment
AshPS Posted June 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Hello all of you lovely people! Just a quick check in as I'm off to bed. Sorry I've been a bit AWOL, things have been a bit stressful and crazy. Workout was done and Arm and Shoulder workout planned for tomorrow. There was a cheesecake incident yesterday, so I will be taking a B on my nutrition goal. But, it was not a binge eat. Just an unplanned special occasion. Alright, I'm very tired...hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday and I hope to be back to reply to you all tomorrow!
