Sushi

- Rice is the common ingredient in all sushi
- Sushi rice is made with salt, sugar and rice vinegar
- Chirashizushi is sushi rice served in a bowl with toppings
- Nigiri is hand-formed sushi rice usually served with a raw fish topping

A traditional Japanese dish dating back hundreds of years, Sushi has recently become popular in North America.
A common misconception

Contrary to popular belief, sushi is not raw fish. Rather, sushi refers to vinegared rice topped with raw or cooked fish, seafood and vegetables. Sashimi refers to raw fish often served with sushi.
Maki zushi

The most common type of sushi served at North American sushi bars is maki zushi or sushi rolls. Rice, seaweed and various toppings are tightly rolled into a cylinder with the help of a bamboo mat. The roll is then cut into bite sized pieces.
