Many people consider sushi to be a simple dish. In fact, it is a whole philosophy and centuries-old tradition. Japanese cuisine is full of amazing stories and rules. Knowing these interesting facts about sushi will make your next order even more exciting. We have compiled five key points that will surprise you. 1. Rice was originally a preservative. Sushi did not originate as a dish, but as a way to preserve fish. The ancient Japanese fermented fish in cooked rice. This process was called narezushi. The rice was discarded, and only the preserved fish was eaten. Modern sushi and rolls only appeared in the 17th century. Our Salmon Sushi Sandwich is a modern evolution of ancient traditions.
2. Wasabi is not needed for spiciness Real wasabi has a complex, grassy flavor. It was originally used to disinfect fish. It has antibacterial properties. Mixing wasabi with soy sauce is bad form. It is better to put a small amount on the roll.
3. Inside-out rolls were invented in the USA Rolls where the rice is on the outside (like our Maxi Roll) are called Uramaki. This format was invented in California. It became popular as a way to hide nori seaweed from American consumers. Now Uramaki is a global classic. Chicken rolls — true fusion Japanese cuisine strictly follows certain principles. However, it does not stand still. Our Baked chicken rollandBaked with tuna are examples of successful fusion. They combine traditional techniques and European ingredients. Baking and Teriyaki sauce add warmth and richness to dishes. This is the perfect choice for those who prefer heat-treated foods. Popular Fusion Ingredients:
Cream cheese (as in our Sushi Sandwich)
Teriyaki sauce
Chicken fillet
5. Sushi chefs train for years The art of sushi making requires tremendous patience. Chefs spend years learning how to cook rice alone. After that, they move on to cutting fish. We are proud of the skill of our chefs. They improve their skills every day. Skills that a sushi master learns:
Cooking perfect rice
Cutting fish
Working with nori
