Sushi - Nigiri

[pamiepie]

Hi All - I promise I have searched all over for this even outside of minimins! Would Sushi Nigiri (which is a piece of rice with a slice of raw fish on top) be free on EE? On the face of it I say yes as it's just white rice and fish, however i don't know if they cook the rice with anything to make it stick? Just had some for lunch and want to syn it if i need to!!
Anybody have any idea?

Sushi is sticky because of the type of rice, which is free if you make it at home but I think the prepacked stuff has syns in it. Not sure why! Was it from a store or home made?

It's from a sushi place so would be fresh! And it is authentic, but just not sure re the syns, oh well I've eaten it now

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but sushi rice usually has some sugar in it. When I make maki I sprinkle the hot rice with a mixture of sugar and rice wine vinegar. Probably only one syn but not syn free ! You have got me thinking about whether I could use artificial sweetener. On the other hand, Maki does come with the added benefit of seaweed. Super food??

I put it down as 4 syns, maybe that was wishful thinking! Lol

The marks & spencers snack packs are only 1.5 syns and they normally have 4 liitle rolls with veg and - big roll with tuna so even if it did have syns i doubt it could be much!
