‘Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper’

This famous saying is going to be false, when your dinner is with sushi foods .Obviously Sushi foods makes your dinner rich. My unsolved question forever is”Why people keep on saying that they don’t like the sushi, when they have not even tasted it before”. As a contrast, these types of foods are prepared in different manner unlike the other foods. All you need is that you should have a little amount of courage to taste the different types of sushi items. Then you will find more tasty foods for your life as well as healthy one.

Rice is one of the main ingredients for sushi catering. The perfect mixture of vinegar, salt and sugar will add the aroma of the food. In addition with these, sushi will be prepared by adding the fish, vegetables such as cucumber and radish and seaweed (often called as nori) with the rice.

The most famous varieties of sushi foods are maki, nigiri, sashimi and Temaki. Maki is the classic one in which sushi is rolled with bamboo rolling mat. Then the nori sheet is rolled with rice ,fish and vegetables .The vegetables used to prepared are carrot, cucumber just like the fish meat or crab preparation. One type of maki named California roll is rolled with egg, fish and sesame grains.

Nigiri, Upper side of the fish is sliced into 5 pieces with almost six centimeters in length whereas the other side is covered with rice. Most of the times, nori sheet is rolled with fish and rice. Sashimi is the Japanese cuisine which consists of raw sea food cut into 2, 4, and 0.5 centimeter.Temaki is the type of nori in shape of cone and the cone is filled with the vegetables, fish and omelet. Soy sauce is the perfect choice for dipping the sushi before you eat. Besides this, wasabi will give a fantastic taste to your tongue whereas ginger neutralizes the taste of sushi to your tongue.

Unless you are living in a cave, you can’t taste the sushi food. In a modern world, you can find the sushi restaurants everywhere since it is spread out to the western countries. A feast with sushi catering is a great notion for any type of sushi parties. If you are looking for a theme to stand out from others, then this theme of sushi catering is yours.

Thoughts on sushi leftovers

How long can I keep my sushi? This question, along with several variations (can I keep sushi in the refrigerator like they do in grocery stores; what can I do with leftover sushi rice) is something that I am often asked. Before I give my answer, please keep in mind that although some sushi may contain raw seafood, sushi does not mean raw fish. Sushi is a word that refers to a dish made with vinegar dressed rice. Sometimes the seafood for sushi is cooked, sometimes it is not. Sometimes there is no seafood at all. With those things in mind, my short answer is that sushi containing vegetables or fully cooked seafood is just as safe as any other form of fully cooked leftovers. But…

Sushi, regardless what form it comes in, is best consumed within minutes of being made. If the sushi happens to contain nori, serving within this time frame prevents the nori from becoming tough and chewy. Also, the longer sushi rice sets, the more it begins to dry out and stiffen. Placing sushi rice in a refrigerator accelerates this process and after just a few short hours, the texture of the rice is often completely changed for the worst.  For these reasons, sushi is best ordered and consumed a few pieces at a time.  If still hungry, you can always order more.  This is the proper way to order sushi in a sushi bar and it is much easier to eliminate the question of leftovers when you order this way. But…

Sometimes our eyes are bigger than our stomachs and we accidentally order or make more sushi than we can consume in one sitting. So when this is the case, can sushi be successfully saved as leftovers? Yes. It would be a shame as well as uneconomical to waste these items. Though the texture will slightly change, there are ways to save leftovers from your favorite sushi bar or those delicious rolls you toiled over at home. Please don’t purposely over order or over make sushi for the sake of having leftovers. The following tips are intended for rare occasions when leftovers cannot be avoided. 

Save Only What’s Fresh. It should go without saying that any sushi you’re currently eating should be fresh. By fresh, I’m referring to freshly made sushi rice as well as any vegetable or seafood fillings (cooked or raw).  Do not eat or save any items that are not fresh. When in doubt, throw it out.

Live by the One Day Rule. Sushi that was fresh to begin with can be successfully saved for 24 hours without sacrificing safety. (Raw items may be saved if refrigerated in a timely manner.) Keeping leftover sushi beyond this point greatly sacrifices the quality.  (You may have noticed that prepackaged grocery store sushi has a 2-3 day shelf life. Rice for these rolls is oversaturated with sushi rice dressing to compensate for the inevitable drying out of the rice. Extra preservatives and corn syrup are often also added to the rice.)

Within Half An Hour. If you’re out on the town and have leftover sushi, it should be okay to save if you can get it refrigerated within half an hour. Sooner is always better. If you’re not headed straight home, you may want to reconsider taking your leftovers with you, especially if you have sushi items that contain raw seafood. Or if you’re making sushi at home, pack any leftovers to save as soon as you’re done.

Utilize Damp Cloths. To keep sushi rice from drying out too much, wet a couple of clean lint free kitchen towels with cool water. Squeeze out excess water. Spread one towel flat on a plate. Place pieces of sushi to be saved on top of towel. Cover sushi with the other towel. Wrap towel covered sushi tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Though this will help keep rice from drying out, it will not help with the texture of the nori. This technique works best for inside out sushi rolls and nigiri.

To save leftover sushi rice, line a non-metal bowl with a damp, lint free kitchen towel. Place rice in bowl. Cover with another damp, lint free kitchen towel. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate. Because of the texture change, day old sushi rice is best when used in applications where the final product is cooked further such as fried rice or stirred into soups.

Introduction:

If memory serves me right, “Nigiri” style sushi dates from the Edo era. Sushi was fast food for the common folk to pick up from vendors, and was called “Edo-mae-zushi.” The artistic harmony between seafood and vinegared rice. Sushi has now become the ultimate international Japanese food.

I also love sushi. And I think it’s about time we had a sushi battle. So it is that actor and film director Naoto Takenaka has strongly recommended to me a particular sushi bar.
A chef who take pride in being in the vanguard of Edo-mae style, which has a tradition of 180 years. Maximizing the flavors of seafood in season. Sounds good. Come in and show us that.

Today’s challenger: an evangelist of Edo-style sushi. Owner of Sushi-sho in Yotsuya. Chef Keiji Kakazawa. He entered this field at age 15. During the first 10 years, he apprenticed at many top sushi bars. And at Kyubei, one of the top sushi bars in Ginza, he completed this training. And at only 30, he opened his own place, Sushi-sho in Yotsuya, to carry on the tradition of Edo style sushi. Nakazawa’s works are fusions of traditional and modern ideas. They speak of the heart of Edo culture.

Takenaka visited the challenger to loosen him up before the battle. Now, Nakazawa! Use your skills that Takenaka trusts and show us what Edo food culture is all about!
