Sushi Eating HOWTO

January 25, 2006 | Link of the Day | By: Mark VandeWettering

I must admit: I love sushi.  Even basic nigiri and sashimi show a degree of concentration that we don’t often see in the west.   Precision.  Freshness.  Balance.  Everytime I have a meal of good sushi, I can’t help but feel better.  The flavors of fish, rice, soy, wasabi and gari are all just… I love it.  I’ve grown to appreciate it so much that it now seems very strange to cook certain fish like salmon.

That being said, I’m no expert: I’ve never been to Japan and the only Japanese words I know come from menus.   But like most things, the more you know, the more you enjoy the subtlety of it all, so I’ll just provide this link to the informative and useful Sushi Eating HOWTO.
