I really love sushi, the taste of seafood pickled ginger and wasabi is a really unique and delicious combination. Do you like it?
I am not a sushi person but I like to look at the pretty arrangements. Is all sushi eaten raw?
Some varities are cooked, but it's often raw. I'm glad you at least asked as people always assume it's all raw.
Yes, I think that is a common misconception. What type of rolls do you like to eat?
I guess spring rolls, I'm kind of a basic person so I like the simple recipes. I think the misconception comes from confusing sushi with sashimi, as sashimi is all thinly sliced raw fish, with optional rice and/or meat.
I see. Is sashimi as popular as sushi? What country did these dishes originate from?
I believe they're both equally popular, just depends on your taste. These dishes are the gold standard of Japanese cuisine, where seafood is common and often grilled.
Interesting. Given how many sushi restaurants I see here, the dishes sure have become popular across the world!
