Do’s and Don’ts of Eating Sushi

Sushi is a popular Japanese dish that has become a favorite of foodies all around the world. While sushi may seem simple, there are certain do’s and don’ts that one should be aware of when eating this delicious delicacy. From proper chopstick etiquette to the right way to enjoy your wasabi, this article will explore the essential do’s and don’ts of eating sushi.

Do’s:Don’ts:

Do’s:

  1. Use chopsticks: The first thing you should do when eating sushi is to use chopsticks. While it is possible to eat sushi with your hands, it is considered more polite and hygienic to use chopsticks. If you’re not very good with chopsticks, don’t worry, you can ask for a fork or spoon.
  2. Use soy sauce sparingly: When eating sushi, it’s important to use soy sauce sparingly. The rice in sushi is already seasoned, so you don’t need to add too much soy sauce. Also, be sure to dip your sushi in the soy sauce fish-side down, so that the rice doesn’t absorb too much soy sauce.
  3. Eat ginger between different sushi: In between different types of sushi, you should eat a small piece of ginger. This helps to cleanse your palate and prepare you for the next type of sushi.
  4. Use wasabi correctly: Wasabi is an important part of sushi, but it should be used correctly. Instead of mixing wasabi into your soy sauce, you should put a small amount of wasabi directly onto your sushi. This allows you to control the amount of wasabi that you use and ensures that you don’t overpower the taste of the sushi.
  5. Eat sushi in one bite: When eating sushi, you should try to eat it in one bite. This allows you to experience the full flavor of the sushi without losing any of the ingredients.

Don’ts:

  1. Don’t mix wasabi with soy sauce: One of the biggest mistakes people make when eating sushi is mixing wasabi with soy sauce. This is considered bad etiquette and can also ruin the flavor of the sushi.
  2. Don’t bite into the sushi: While it may be tempting to bite into your sushi, this is not the correct way to eat it. Instead, you should put the whole piece of sushi in your mouth and chew it slowly.
  3. Don’t leave your chopsticks in the soy sauce: Leaving your chopsticks in the soy sauce is considered rude in Japanese culture. Instead, you should place your chopsticks on the chopstick rest or on the side of your plate.
  4. Don’t eat ginger with sushi: Eating ginger with sushi is considered bad etiquette. The ginger is meant to be eaten between different types of sushi to cleanse your palate, not as a topping for your sushi.
  5. Don’t order too much at once: When ordering sushi, it’s important not to order too much at once. This can cause you to rush through your meal and not fully enjoy each piece of sushi.

In conclusion, sushi is a delicious and delicate dish that requires some knowledge and skills to be fully enjoyed. By following these do’s and don’ts, you can enhance your sushi-eating experience and impress your fellow diners with your sushi etiquette. Remember, respect for the tradition and culture behind this delicacy is as important as the taste itself. So, go ahead, grab those chopsticks, and enjoy your sushi like a pro!
