What kind of sushi should I try?!

Although there are a number of Sushi types that most people order, in reality, you can choose any combination of fish and vegetables you like. Therefore, in addition to some of the better-known Sushi types, you can be as imaginative as you like and create your own Sushi variety. The first list includes some of the most common ways in which Sushi is made:

Bara Sushi – The vinegar rice and ingredients are mixed as a salad

This third list includes other ingredients that are commonly used for Sushi:

Seasoned rice vinegar

As you can see, Sushi is not simply rice and fish. While you can create any ingredient combination that sounds appealing to you, the one thing you want to do is maintain the integrity of this Asian food. This means serving the Sushi with a choice of soy sauce or wasabi, along with either pickled ginger or green tea as a way to cleanse the palette.

You will find that making Sushi is actually very easy. That coupled with the fact that it is full of incredible nutrients, low in calories, and tastes delicious, there is no doubt that Sushi will become your next favorite food.

anything with shrimp tempura in it is good, like crunchy rolls or shrimp tempura rolls.

avocado rolls and yum yum rolls are the best. California rolls come in third for me.

try them all!

just dive straight in and don't look up what you're eating until you've eaten it! god i love sushi!! XD x
