Sushi is a dish where all the fish is basically eaten raw. This means that fish must be as fresh as possible and of the highest quality.
The quality of fish used for sushi is only available in a limited amount in the world seas. This is known to all who sell fish.
If you buy fish in the supermarket, then you do not know where it has been caught. There are some places in the world where the fish are better than other.

One of the ingredients that the Japanese eat almost every day is cabbage. In Japan, cabbage is not just cabbage.

Although the government has closed down for people to travel in and out of Denmark this does not apply to food.
There are many supermarkets that have ordered extra goods so their stock is full of goods. Special stores such as fishmongers still get fresh seafood delivered several times a week from abroad.
It ranges from tuna in Japan to salmon from the Faroe Islands. However, the fishmongers may well find that the amount of tuna entering Denmark is less than it usually. This is not because the quantity of goods from the producers has decreased.
There are some food suppliers in Denmark who order fewer products from abroad at the moment. This is because the restaurant industry has been shut down for a period of time.
However, the most sought after items such as fresh salmon, marinated herring and other Scandinavian seafood will be found at the fishmongers.

On Sunday I held the course Sushi for Beginners it was nice as always.
On the course I was asked if it is okay to keep sushi ro the next day. Unfortunately you are not allowed to keep sushi in the fridge until next day, since sushi is made with raw fish. Sushi has to be eaten the same day as it was made.

Most people have the impression that the classic red tuna we know in Denmark is also the most popular fish abroad.
In countries like US and Japan there are many other types of tuna.
Most people in Denmark do not really know about the white tuna and called Yellowtail. It is fish that has at least as nice and delicate taste as the red tuna. In US and Japan many do prefer the white tuna. The white tuna has different flavors, shades and aromas which make it suitable for sushi and dishes where the red tuna does not fit properly.
