Loading ...What is the secret behind the popularity of sushi and rolls around the world?
It would not be very correct to call sushi simply a delicious delicacy. After all, it is, first of all, the calling card of Japan. As soon as we hear the phrase “Japanese cuisine” somewhere, a picture immediately appears in our imagination: sushi and wooden chopsticks. This stereotype is associated with the main food products of the Japanese: rice and fish. At the same time, the Japanese do not even subject the fish to heat treatment for this dish. Ukrainians love Japanese food for its versatility: it can be a delicious snack or a full-fledged lunch. They are also great for various events and holidays, such as a party in the office or sushi for birthday with friends and family.
What fish is used to make sushi in Ukraine?
Despite such a huge popularity, there are still many superstitions about sushi, because of which some even refuse this healthy dish. And the most famous rumor is that sushi necessarily contains raw fish. This is not at all true. At least in Ukraine. In Asian countries bordering the ocean, unlike most European countries, there are no problems with the supply of fresh fish. Therefore, it is quite obvious that dishes with raw fish are held in special esteem there.
In Ukraine, fish and seafood undergo appropriate processing to extend their shelf life: smoking, marinating, salting. Therefore, sushi and rolls served in Japanese restaurants in Ukraine contain processed fish: tuna, salmon, trout. And the risk of poisoning or catching parasites is minimal.
