Do you HAVE to have a bamboo mat for rolling sushi?
Today I went to the japanese grocery store and baught some rice vinigar and some sushi rice and roasted seaweed. I dont have the wooden bowl, flat spoon thingy or the bamboo mat.
Can I still make sushi?
Do you HAVE to have a bamboo mat for rolling sushi?
You can use a dish towel for rolling your nori maki
Reply:Yes. just roll it between your hands after wrapping with saran wrap.
Reply:The wood is good b/c the sticky, sticky rice won't stick to it when wet.
You might could try using plastic wrap.... you use the mat to assist you in rolling the sushi up nice and tight. Plastic wrap might suffice instead, but take care to wrap tightly.
Reply:Sure you can! The mat helps get the roll nice and tight, but you can do the same thing with wax paper. You might need to replace the wax paper after a couple of rolls, as it gets a bit soggy, but it works just fine. I made sushi at a friends house once and didn't have my mat-the wax paper worked so well, that I often don't bother with the mat.
Reply:idk i dont eat sushi...yukk! no offence but u prolly dont have to have a bamboo mat u can just use another thing similar to it
Reply:Yes or you end up with jacked up sushi. It won't roll correctly or tightly.
Go to your local bookstore like Books a million or Barnes %26amp; nobles. They often sell sushi making kits for less than 10 dollars. YOu will get the book, chopsticks and the all important mat.
Once you use the mat you'll never use anything else.
Reply:Sure you can. You can use a damp cloth covered with saran wrap instead of the bamboo mat.
When you make the rice, and pour the sugar/rice vinegar mixture over-- use a shallow basin or bowl, toss the rice with a large spoon, and ideally, fan it so that the liquid evaporates and the rice doesn't get mushy. Don't over mix- that's what the wooden paddle and bowl are for --but you don't need that.

Has anyone installed and lived on Bamboo Floors for a while?
I used to have them in my store with a lot of traffic. They held up very well and were easy on the feet. I would recomend them.

I am a carpenter and i have a job coming up that involves trimming out a home in manny sizes of bamboo poles. i am looking for imformation on cuting and coaping tequnicks. ang best ways to attatch them to gether
How do i cut and install bamboo in a home as trim?
You will have to drill small holes in the spots you want to put the nails.
Be sure the bamboo is cured good and pre-finished.

Reply:wow...tough one here...as a sheetmetalman I would think you could cut the bamboo in halves lengthwise and miter the same as you would any other top trim, bottom trim, side trim, etc....maybe dry bamboo would hold glue for mitered corners, etc.....good luck

Has anyone installed Lumber Liquidators Supreme Bamboo Floor?
I'm doing a new home and was wondering has anyone used Lumber Liquidators Supreme Bamboo floor or their engineered wood?
Has anyone installed Lumber Liquidators Supreme Bamboo Floor?
Yes I have it. My husband and I installed it ourselves. We've had it for about a year now. It did get scratched BUT NOT from my TWO dogs. It got scratched last Halloween when our neighbor's drink friends decided they would dance on our new bamboo floors in their army boots with ROCKS embedded in the soles!!!
If that hadn't happened, the floor would be in great shape. The consistency is like wood. It will ding when you drop metal things like screwdrivers, but overall it's held up really well. The small dings are hidden by pattern of the bamboo.
The best thing I like about the bamboo is the even temperature. My mom had maple floors and that were soooo cold in the winter time. The bamboo stays cool in summer and a tolerable cool in winter. If I moved, I would get the bamboo again.
P.S. Our local Lumber Liquidator carried a decorative border that's really cool. It has diamond shapes in it. Email me if you want to see a picture.
Duhryan3- I tried to email you but got an error msg. It said You email is not confimed and can not send?? Anyway, we went with the Morning Star. Send me an email address where I can attach pictures and I will send them.
Reply:Yes, I had this bamboo flooring for a year now, and, protect our house from extreme coldness compared to oak flooring that we had before. Super strong than any hard wood flooring! Report It
Reply:I am not specifically sure about L,L Bamboo. But I will tell you when it comes to Bamboo make sure it is in the 6' / 72" long boards. When manufactures make Bamboo flooring they take the bottom 6' of the chute and make premium floor with it.... the bottom of the chute is the oldest and hardest part. Everything above that they cut into 3' / 36" lengths. Most if not all of the wood floors you buy today are coming from eco-managed forests. Ones that are allowed to grow 20-30 yrs...That being said because Bamboo matures at 5 yrs of age instead of 35-50 yrs for Oak, most of the Bamboo you buy (if Premium) will be denser than your standard builder grade Oak floor. You can still buy Old growth Oak floors that will way out preform Bamboo, but are very costly. So all that being said Bamboo is a great floor if bought properly. Do your homework and ask them where they buy their Bamboo from.. Obviously Lumber Liquidators does'nt grow and manufacture themselves, so get more info on who they buy from...Good luck
Reply:Yes I have installed it for a customer, and the next morning we ripped it out BECAUSE, their dogs ran around on it over night and scratched the HELL out of it. They told the home owner, who had purchased the material, that it "was tougher than hard wood floors". I BEG TO DIFFER!!! Store location:Olathe, KS.
