Japanese food such as rolls and sushi does not lose its fans over the years. More and more people are becoming true connoisseurs of these specific delights. But you should never forget that it is necessary to use sushi and rolls in compliance with all the rules and ethics. Especially if people come to a sushi bar. If done right, there is an opportunity to experience the true taste of Japanese food. Otherwise, rolls and sushi may simply not be pleasant.
Where does the meal begin
In the sushi bar, as soon as the visitors place their order, the waiter will certainly bring aromatic green tea. Most often, this drink is free, but there are exceptions.
Also, the waiter brings soy sauce, which is a must when eating sushi and rolls, and a special wet towel called oshibori. It will definitely be hot or warm, so be careful. It will be needed so that clients can wipe their hands thoroughly before a meal. And you need to do this action right away, until the towel cools down. Then the waiters take him away.
Each visitor will have a special small tray-stand on the table, on which a small gravy boat will be located. Soy sauce is poured into it. A small amount of wasabi is also added there - a very spicy national seasoning. This is done with sticks. The mixture is mixed well. As a result, the sauce becomes spicy. But do not overdo it with Japanese horseradish, otherwise you will not feel the true taste of the Japanese dish.
Rules for the use of the dish
Now you can proceed to the direct use of the dish. So, sushi and rolls can be eaten not only with chopsticks, but also with your hands. However, the second option for consuming Japanese food is allowed only for the stronger sex. But if a woman is not in a sushi bar, but at home, in a circle of close people, then it is quite possible for her to deviate from the rules.
Sushi or rolls should be dipped in the sauce. Do not dip them completely. You need to do this only with the edge of the fish near the land, or with the edge near the rolls. Accordingly, it is necessary not to wet the rice. They eat the whole delicacy - no need to try to bite off just a small piece. This must be remembered!
Then you need to eat a small piece of ginger. In the event that a visitor of a sushi bar does not like ginger, you can just hold it in your mouth. After all, it is he who helps to bring down the taste before trying another sushi or roll.
How to drink sushi and rolls
Not everyone knows, but it would be best to drink sushi with green tea, which is kindly served by the waiter in establishments. It is worth doing this for the reason that the named drink is able not only to improve digestion, but also not to interrupt the taste of the Japanese dish.
If you are throwing a party at your home and intend to have a Japanese-style dinner, then beer is best suited as an alcoholic drink. But don't forget about the traditional sake.
