Hi.
Would you correct my English, please?


"Mother’s Day"

Second Sunday of May is mother’s day in many countries. In Japan too.
Many Japanese people give red carnations to mother, and eat “chirashi-zushi”.
“Chirashi-zushi” is a type of sushi. We also eat it on birthdays, Girls Festival, and some holidays.
There are two types of “chirashi-zushi”. A homemade and a restaurant.
I looked for a homemade recipe in English in the web, but there weren’t any proper ones.
Of course you can make chirashi-zushi as you like, but you need “kinshi-tamago”(“Tamago” means “eggs”.) on your “chirashi-zusi”, and English recipes don’t have it.
It’s a bit difficult to make. The appearance is similar to “sliced crape” (the width is about 3 millimeters.)
Add a little salt and a little starch with water (If it’s a bother, you don’t need to add anything to eggs. Me neither.) into beaten eggs and bake it thinly like a paper.
Slice them beautifully.
Thank you!

Hello, I may not understand English very well and I may lack words but I will try to understand you.

If you have questions about my post or Japanese customs, don't hesitate to ask.
