TASTE CREATED FROM NON-NEVER; SUSHI
The famous Japanese writer Yukio Mishima tells the story of the emergence of sushi: “The only thing Japanese fishermen whose survival depends on the sea are rice, raw fish and seaweed. They, too, were able to fill their bellies and survive by combining this end and dipping them in soy sauce that they always have with them.”
Sushi has changed a lot over time. In the Muromachi period, 'namanare', where fish was first consumed with rice, was the most popular sushi round. During the Edo Period between 1603 and 1867 in Japan, a type of sushi called 'hayazushi', in which vegetables and other dried foods were used for the first time, began to become widespread.
