Can whole grain rice be used for sushi?

by

Futomaki
In Denmark and the rest of the world, sushi is made with white short-grain sushi rice.

I do get questions about brown rice and whether it can be used to make tasty sushi.

White rice

In Denmark, sushi is most often made with white sushi rice. There are several advantages to making sushi with white sushi rice.

The advantages of using white sushi rice are that the individual grains of rice have a smooth surface, which in terms of taste fits perfectly with silky slices of fish. Once the rice is  cooked, it is mixed with the vinegar marinade, which makes the individual grains of rice stick to each other.  That is crucial when making sushi by hand.

Whole grain rice

In Denmark, there are a few sushi restaurants that have experimented with whole grain rice. There are some advantages to making sushi with whole grain rice.

The advantages of using whole grain rice are that they are healthier. They contain more vitamins and minerals than white sushi rice.
Whole grain rice is far more difficult to cook to perfection. The cooked rice is a harder and looser texture, they do not stick together like white sushi rice. This makes it more difficult to make different kinds of sushi, because the individual pieces of sushi tend to fall apart.

Whole grain rice has a slightly dominant nutty taste, which can drown the taste of, for example, salmon or cucumber.
There are advantages and disadvantages to using whole grain rice.  I know for sure that I will continue to make sushi with white sushi rice.

On the Sushi course for beginners, you will learn the secret behind perfectly cooked white sushi rice. You will learn step by step how to make tasty sushi with the most popular fish for sushi.

What drinks go best with sushi?

by


In Europe, bubbles or wine are most often drunk with sushi.

It looks a little different in Japan.

A cold beer, especially a light lager or a Japanese type of beer like Asahi or Sapporo, goes really well with sushi. The slightly bitter taste and effervescent carbonation are particularly good with fatty fish such as salmon dipped in soy sauce.

Green tea is another classic drink that pairs well with sushi. It is refreshing taste and antioxidants can help cleanse the palate between each bite. A light and delicate green tea is best, it will not overshadow the taste of the sushi.

Sake is a traditional Japanese rice wine that is a natural choice for sushi. The clean, light taste and subtle sweetness of sake goes well with the fresh taste of raw fish and seaweed.
In Japan, the selection of different types of sake is large, ranging from dry to sweet, so it is all about finding a sake that matches the pieces of sushi.

In relation to sushi, there are several different types of drinks that can be enjoyed with the food.

On the Sushi course for beginners, you learn step by step how to make tasty sushi.

What is the best way to store sushi in a refrigerator?

by

Sushi Chef & Sake Sommelier
Sushi is a dish that tends to dry out easily if it is stored the wrong way.

All ingredients used in sushi are fresh and raw.
You know it from tomatoes. If you cut a tomato allow it to lie without being wrapped properly the surface will dry. The same thing happens with sushi. It does not taste very good.

What causes sushi to dry out easily is the direct contact with air.
Sushi should be stored in an airtight container. If that is not possible, let us say you bought sushi for a dinner and it takes up a lot of space in your fridge.

The next best thing to do is to wrap cling film tightly around the sushi so that no air gets in. It is important to wrap in such a way that the individual pieces of sushi do not break.

Sushi should always be eaten at room temperature. It tastes the best.
Approx. 15 minutes before you sit down to eat, you take the sushi out of the fridge and leave it on the kitchen table (without a lid).

You do not always have to buy sushi.

On the Sushi course for beginners, you learn step by step how to make tasty sushi for everyday use and parties.

Sushi is your shortcut to more vegetables

by

Futomaki
Many of us would like to eat more vegetables on a daily basis. Vegetables are full of important vitamins, minerals and fibre, all of which contribute to a healthy body.
In a busy everyday life, it can be challenging to eat the recommended vegetables. If you are looking for a delicious and easy way to get more vegetables into your diet, sushi could be your shortcut.

Although many people think of fish when they hear the word “sushi”, vegetables are also an essential part of this wonderful dish. From fresh cucumbers and avocado to steamed asparagus and marinated radish – sushi offers a world of vegetables presented in a new and exciting way.

Eating raw vegetables is healthier than cooked vegetables. The various raw vegetables used in sushi boost your body with vitamins.

Not only do you get lots of vegetables with sushi, but the seaweed nori, which is often used to make sushi rolls, is full of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. This makes sushi both tasty and healthy to eat.

Sushi is more than just raw fish.

How many vitamins and minerals does a sushi roll contain?

by

Sushi chef & sake sommerlier Zoë Escher
Sushi is a popular Japanese delicacy known for its fresh taste and artful presentation. In addition to being a delicious dish, sushi is also known to be healthier than many other fatty and calorie-heavy alternatives.

How healthy is a sushi roll?

Sushi is often made with raw fish such as salmon, tuna or mackerel, which are rich in omega-3. The fish is a good source of proteins and the fatty fish oils are healthy for the body and strengthen health.

Beside fish, sushi also contains vegetables such as cucumbers, avocados and asparagus. These vegetables not only give sushi its distinctive taste and texture, but they are also packed with vitamins and minerals.

Sushi also contains rice, which is an important source of carbohydrates and energy. Although rice is not as rich in vitamins and minerals as fish and vegetables, it is still an important part of the meal.

Sushi seaweed is one of the healthiest vegetables in the world. It is the vegetable that contains the most vitamins and minerals. One seaweed sheet corresponds to 600 grams of vegetables. If you are tired of eating cauliflower or broccoli, sushi is a good alternative.
