Sashimi and sushi- what’s the difference?
Although they are well-known dishes for lovers of Japanese cuisine, they can be problematic for people who have not had contact with them before. Sashimi and sushi are dishes that, despite their similar-sounding names, have many significant differences. They are connected by one thing, namely the addition of raw meat. Sashimi is a way of serving raw meat, most often fish and seafood, but not only. We can also find sashimi from horse meat or beef. These ingredients are most often cut into cubes and served with aromatic spices. Wasabi, soy sauce, or citrus ponzu sauce are served with them.
Sushi, on the other hand, is a well-known, traditional Japanese dish that consists of rice with rice vinegar and the addition of raw fish, but not only. You can also find many other ingredients here, such as nori seaweed, seafood, mushrooms, vegetables, and even tofu. Due to the ingredients used here, it is called one of the healthiest dishes.
If you would like to taste your own Japanese dishes, you should get an appropriate slicing kitchen knife model. In the assortment of our online store, you will find a wide selection of many interesting and functional models that will surely delight you with their durability, ergonomics, and quality.
