Heh heh! Good point, Wilson.

I have two Japanese cookbooks, not restricted to sushi. One is Emi Kazuko's
"The Book of Japanese Cooking," a lovely and very well illustrated book.
The other is "Japanese Cooking, A Simple Art," by Shizuo Tsuji. This
extraordinary book is my main reference on the subject, and is also very
well illustrated. Your public library might have the latter.
