Yuck. Cucumber is good in little slices in sushi but it doesn’t sound very appetizing for the the cucumber to be the main thing in the sushi, let alone the thing containing it.

Thing is, it actually does take skill to use chopsticks, and it's also much more useful as a utensil. Gotta love hearing midwesterners say "durr two sticks is primitive" while they STAB THEIR FOOD TO PICK IT UP LLOL

>> No.18164341

>>18164300
How primitive do you have to be to think it's some great skill to be able to handle two sticks. Those videos of 'westerners' who can't use chopsticks are people who have never tried and who have been given the sticks immediately before filming. Even the most bottom of the barrel scraping retard-level IQ westerner/average-level IQ local wherever you're from can learn how to use them after 20 seconds of practice.

not him, but there are things that are harder to pick up with chopsticks than a fork, say a pea or an individual grain of rice for example, but it is far more useful. you can use a chopstick to tell how hot your oil is for frying, you can use it to stir dishes in the pot, you can use it to peel apart stuff instead of using two forks. you can do most things and then some with two chopsticks what you can do with a fork, but they all take practice. anything you practice becomes a skill.

>say a pea or an individual grain of rice for example
I appreciate the input but disagree. The very first thing I learned to do when I first picked up a pair of chopsticks was to learn how to pick up individual grains of rice and I was shocked at how easy it was compared to how hard the media made it seem. Maybe that's just because globally our medias tend to be run by genetic dead ends so it is really hard for them?

Chopsticks were originally meant as a cooking utensil instead of an eating one. They didn't become a common eating utensil until around the Song dynasty where trade spread cultivars of fast-ripening rice from Vietnam to the rest of Asia. Fast-ripening rice clumps together when it's cooked, making it easy to eat with just chopsticks. Bragging about "being able to pick up a single grain of rice" as a defence is retarded.

There's a sushi place I like that does an interesting dish where they shave cucumber into sheets and then soak them in ponzu until they can be used as a wrap. The filling is salmon, omelette, and crab salad, topped with flying fish roe.
Problem is the place can be really hit or miss depending on the chefs that are working. I swear somedays they have a guy with cerebral palsy working there.

I don't know if I'd call her an instatard. Her technique is actually perfectly valid for what she is doing as per my image, and really she could be seen as quite revolutionary.

Boil noodles and cool them, I've done this with angel hair. Cut up strips of scrambled egg, carrots, cucumbers. Get your hands on sesame sauce and just mix it all up with the cold noodles. God tier summer food.
If you try this and end up with tasteless sesame sauce then it's the type that needs soy sauce before eating.
