Next week we're hosting a sushi party for my boss and coworkers. I love sushi. The only problem is that once you start making your own sushi, the whole mystique and exoticness (is that a word?) wears off. Last week I was at a sushi place in SLC and found myself thinking "I could make this - $10 for this roll is such a ripoff!". It takes a bit of the fun out of going to get sushi (kind of like how I never order spaghetti in a restaurant - why pay for something you could make just as well, if not better, at home?).
i'd like to know how to buy raw tuna, salmon, etc. just to eat good, cheap sashimi at home. is that possible? the mystique means nothing to me.
