The History and Varieties of Sushi

Sushi, a Japanese delicacy, consists of vinegared rice and various ingredients like seafood and vegetables. Originating from Nari Sushi, it evolved into a non-fermented form by Hanaya Yohei in the Edo period. Sushi is typically made with white rice and includes raw seafood or vegetarian options. It is served with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi. Sushi has gained global popularity, leading to Western variations like the California roll. The introduction of salmon in sushi by Norwegian businessman Bjorn Eric Olsen in the 1980s further diversified its appeal.
