Sushi cake. Makes you think of Christmas, right?
Ok…there’s an explanation. Remember the Medoways? The Medoways of basketball and television cakes? For the past few years I’ve been going to Medoways for some Christmas celebration. The Medoways are one of those great Italian families. Great, like big family, lots of food, lots of fun. Being Italian, on Christmas Eve they have a fish feast. I think they are supposed to have 7 different fish, but I don’t think I’ve ever counted. I’m pretty sure I’m usually too busy stuffing my face.
As part of the fish theme, I usually bake some sort of fish baked good. One year it was a fish cake, last year it was fish cookies. This year, I broadened my horizons from fish shaped (not flavored, don’t worry!) baked good to a fish based food product. And while some yellowtail snapper is most likely delicious, it doesn’t make a very pretty baked good. But sushi. Sushi is pretty. So sushi it is.
Any suggestions for next year?
