No matter what style you enjoy, sushi’s main ingredients remain the same – rice, su (rice vinegar), nori (seaweed)

and an assortment of the freshest fish, mostly sashimi, which is thinly sliced raw fish. An array of seasonings enhances the flavours created by chefs in sushi, such as shoyu (soy sauce), wasabi (hot green Japanese horseradish) and gari or shoga (pickled ginger), as well as a range of sauces.

Sushi is absolutely right for today’s lifestyle: it’s low in fat and calories, high in omega-3 fatty acids when featuring fresh fish, and easy to eat on the go.
