Sushi
 |
 Sushi
is one of the most characteristic parts of Japanese cuisine. It is
made of vinegared rice combined with toppings or fillings from seafood
to vegetables, mushrooms, eggs, and meat. Toppings may be raw, cooked、blanched
or marinated. Sushi is best eaten with the hands.
Sushi, a healthy food, is experiencing a wave of popularity the world
over as the number of sushi restaurants mushrooms. Sushi originates
from the practice of preserving salted fish by fermenting it in rice
for months, a tradition which can be traced back to ancient Japan.
In the past sushi was expensive beyond the reach of commoners. Though
the image of sushi as luxury persists, the advent of kaiten (rotating)
sushi restaurants and sushi-making robots means the price of sushi
has become such that it can be afforded by even people on meager budgets. |
