Sushi is probably the most popular Japanese meal, however it doesn’t mean that Japanese people eat it everyday.
The way it looks like, is other common misunderstanding about sushi. Sushi, it’s not only sashimi nor “maki”. Sushi, in total, consists of variety ingredients, e.g., cooked vinegared rice, seafood, seaweed, vegetables, meat, fruits, etc. Sushi is often served with pickled ginger, wasabi, and soy sauce.
While being in Japan, definitely try sushi as well as other traditional Japanese foods!
Enjoy not only the taste; the way it’s served is usually very interesting. 🙂
How is Wasabi ?XD!!
It tastes really good when you get a piece of fresh root of wasabi and grater and you have to prepare it yourself!
indeed! 🙂
hihi, I know, some people think it’s avocado 😉
I like it, and love ginger! 🙂
I definitely prefer sashimi or nigiri so I can taste the essence of the particular fish. Also very nice way of serving sushi is to put the set of fish or ikura on the rice in the little bowl – it is called “shirashi zushi”. I strongly recommend that dish next time you’re in Japan. 🙂
Japanese food is a pleasure in all ways 🙂
