When a Japanese person orders sushi, they use other criteria to evaluate the food.
When it comes to sushi the Japanese’s favorite food is nigiri. The selection of fish in Japan is very large and it is very normal that you find 15 to 20 different fish on the menu.
What a Japanese person primarily looks for when eating sushi is whether the rice is cooked to perfection. The consistency of sushi rice should be soft but also firm. It should not be like porridge, but the rice grain should not be hard or raw inside either. It is a balance that is difficult to get.
If the rice is not cooked to perfection, I will affect the dining experience. This is because quite a few ingredients are used for sushi. You use the best fish in the world, but if the rice is cooked to perfection the dining experience will fall apart.
In the Sushi course for beginners, you learn step-by-step how to cook sushi in a quality that is suitable for use in sushi.
