Of all the foods to try and recreate at home, sushi seems like it’d be near the bottom of the list. Sticky rice is hard to get right, you have to buy seaweed, and to top it all off, you’re most likely dealing with raw fish.

Fishtown’s Otolith Sustainable Seafood doesn’t have time for our lame excuses. And to prove DIY sushi is easy and fun, it’s hosting “The Art and Preparation of Sushi” this Saturday from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. The lesson will use a variety of sustainable seafood, including King Crab, King Salmon and Kodiak sea scallops.

The event promises to be enjoyable for every level of sushi chef (Itamae, in Japanese), from novice to expert. Tickets are $25 with a $5 deposit before the event, $35 at the door. Still not convinced homemade seafood is up your alley? Otolith has tons of great sustainable seafood items, both a la carte and in convenient seafood packs – perfect for summer cookouts.
