Japanese Life: Seiko Sushi in Japan

Japan is a country with a long food culture. Unique Japanese cuisine pays attention to natural color and delicious taste, and attaches great importance to the seasonality of materials. This not only maintains its own unique style, but also integrates Chinese and western cooking characteristics.

Simple and exquisite, natural and delicious-that's why Japanese cuisine is popular all over the world. Among them, sushi, as a traditional food, is widely welcomed by people. It is usually cold rice seasoned with vinegar, with vegetables, eggs, fish and other ingredients.

Among the traditional Japanese sushi, Seiko sushi is a gourmet art that has been circulating for more than 200 years. Although its material is the same as ordinary sushi, if you want to make exquisite sushi patterns, you must have superb craftsmanship. Chefs who specialize in sushi can express their imagination with simple ingredients: seaweed as hair, roe as headdress, cucumber as hairpin, and a dancer-shaped sushi was born. Sushi in the shape of mascots, such as cranes, often appear on occasions to celebrate birthdays and New Year, so as to increase the festive atmosphere. Such exquisite sushi, let alone eating it, looks mouth watering.

Seiko sushi has different patterns and colors with the change of seasons. However, because there are not many sushi chefs who master this craft, it is difficult to see these exquisite sushi with delicious taste and small and unique shape in ordinary sushi shops.
