Fresh and Delicious Japanese Cuisine

There are few things which people know about Japanese cuisine. The one thing that people think that they know, sushi, is often misunderstood. People will turn their nose up to it because they say that they do not want to eat raw seafood. In fact, only a portion has raw seafood included in it. The only dish that they have which is purely raw seafood is sashimi. The main component which makes up sushi is sweetened sticky rice. They can be rolled in seaweed paper or topped with different items to create the sushi you want to eat.

Along with sushi, there are many different kinds of foods which have been developed over the years which help to make sure that the workers are able to get some food to bring with them.
