Relatively recently, sushi bars and Japanese restaurants have entered our daily life. For the most part, we appreciated them and began to visit them often. The only problem is that the culture of Japan is very far from us, and we do not understand this whole ceremony
Many are shy and do not go to such establishments, just because they do not know the rules of etiquette. Therefore, we will look at a few basic rules
First, a little musical notation. Japanese cuisine is very diverse. Sushi is just one of the types of food that Japanese restaurants offer. Sushi or sushi is fish, shellfish, caviar, vegetables, or an omelet on rice. They are made like this, a dense lump is formed from rice, the main component is laid on it and rewound with nori algae. Sashimi is only slices of fish, shellfish, seafood that are served raw. Sushi rolls are a roll, which consists of rice and a variety of other seafood and vegetables. In addition, Japanese cuisine is full of salads and soups, rice noodle dishes and sweet rice products for dessert.
To eat sushi properly, you first need to learn to eat with chopsticks. Science is not difficult, but requires skill. The best way to learn quickly is through constant training. Otherwise, there are a few more nuances.
