Sushi Making
The craft of preparing sushi, including cooking rice, slicing fish, and assembling pieces.
What is it?
Sushi making is a skill that takes years to learn. Chefs, called itamae, train to master each step. They cook rice with vinegar, sugar, and salt. They slice raw fish very thinly. They shape the rice into small mounds and top them with fish or other ingredients. The sushi art exhibit you captured shows the result of this careful work.
