Sushi USA vs Japan - Eric Meal Time #594

Here's three differences between Sushi in Japan and American sushi joints: #1. Japan: The original sushi roll (Maki) consists of sushi rice and fish or vegetables wrapped in nori (seaweed). America: To appeal to the western aesthetic, the traditional roll was flipped inside out. Americans like their rice on the outside and nori on the inside. #2. Japan: Maki sushi is simple: seaweed, sushi rice, one type of fish, and maybe some vegetables inside. America: Sushi rolls are jam-packed and topped with different types of fish, veggies and whatever else can fit inside the roll. #3. Japan: Sushi literally translates to vinegar rice. Sushi rice is a smaller white grained rice seasoned with vinegar, sugar and salt. It takes time and a specific temperature to create perfect sushi rice. America: In order to attract health nuts, sushi restaurants introduced brown rice as a substitute for the necessary white sushi rice. ---------- ►GRAB A T-SHIRT? https://teespring.com/stores/ericsurf6-merch Use Promo Code: ERICSURF6 for 10% off at checkout. ►Instagram: Follow for Day in the Life Japan cool stuff: https://instagram.com/ericsurf6 ►Support my work on Patreon (Reward Levels: Post Cards & Snack Packs): https://www.patreon.com/ericsurf6 ►SUBSCRIBE for New Videos EVERY Wednesday & Saturday & Surprise Videos too: https://www.youtube.com/ericsurf6?sub... ---------- Winners of Snack Packs from the last video: 1.
