Denmark is a small country with about 5 mio citizens compared to Japan where only 20 million citizens in Tokyo.
Since Denmark is a small country the demand for fish is small too.
In Japan it is very normal that there are approximately 20 different high quality fish on the menu in a Japanese sushi restaurant. In Denmark most people know of tuna, whitefish, salmon and prawns for sushi.
Denmark do have national high quality fish which are not used for sushi. I do not know why. But the Danish people will miss out unique flavors because they can never try different types of fish during a meal.
At Sushi course for beginners I will speak more about fish for sushi.
