Anyone else interested/experienced within sushi preparation?

I love sushi/sashimi and would like to draw from into the process of preparing my own. Currently, I'm researching the basics... The biggest sound out I have is that it won't really be worth it unless I find a place here surrounded by the Midwest (Kansas City) where I can buy fresh fish/other Japanese food products.

I'm also depart to any other comments regarding classes/DVD's/tips on the subject of sushi preparation!

Answer:
please contact Northern Haserot (restaurant supply company) for the best vendors of sushi-grade seafood. do NOT buy the stuff surrounded by the store, it can be dangerous. If they do not service your nouns they will tell you whom to call for. I use them all the time.
You will inevitability sushi rice (buy Nishiko brand or equivalent), wash, mop up, wash, back you cook, the water must run clear... cook, and when almost in position sprinkle with rice vinegar (not too much!) and fluff near a spatula, let rest...
you must prepare wasabi soft mass, no big deal, I label mine using fresh root, but powdered form will do. Knead with river and do NOT touch your eyes afterwards...
You will need to buy Nori (seaweed wrapper, Hasreot will oblige you with that)
You will also ned a razor-sharp pierce which you will dip in sesame grease before slicing fish...
I will be glad to give support to and make sure you do it right...

No, I'm too upset to make my own. I'd fairly just put away it! =)
I don't live in the nouns, but there is a Whole Foods Market surrounded by Overland Park, KS that should have adjectives the supplies you need for sushi. You want:

Bamboo mat
Nori (dried seaweed sheets)
Cooked rice
"fillings" (veggies, fresh fish)
Wasabi pulp (should be able to find that at Whole Foods. It comes prepared surrounded by a tube, or you can buy a powder and prepare it yourself)
Soy sauce
Pickled Japanese Ginger
And anything else you like near sushi.

Cook the rice ahead of time, and let it cool. Lay a piece of nori on your rattan mat. Spread the cooled rice on the seaweed. Then lay a row of your veggies/fish on the rice, one inch in. Use the rattan mat to roll all of this as tight as you can. Roll a bit bit, then pick up the portion of the mat explicitly hitting the rice, and roll some more.

It's a little firm to explain, but with some adjectives sense, you'll figure it out.

After it's rolled, slice it and relish!

I would also google a Japanese store in your nouns for more advice, and check online for a book or dvd to hand over you the basics.

(In repsonse to the answer above me, you should be fine to purchase fresh fish at Whole Food Market. They hold top quality fish, and other keep things verbs and food safe. But I do agree, don't only just buy your fish anywhere. Make sure it is a reputable source.)
I love sushi too. Kansas City is a big town-you should be able to find sushi level fish and sushi making supplies-go exploring.Call the chain supermarkets first and ask if they hold those things,then check out ethnic stores-my Yahoo scrabble showed several oriental grocery stores in your nouns.The Japanese consider the rice the most important chunk of the sushi,with the fish man a compliment.
