  • Downloadable Sushi Guide
    Courtesy of www.alighaemi.com THE SUSHI GUIDE – A LIST OF TYPES OF SUSHI 寿司 At over 200 terms I have attempted to compile as comprehensive a list of sushi fish and a guide to sushi terms and sushi terminology as possible. Sushi and its related fish can become confusing and many diners and restaurants, and lesser chefs, casually mistake and confuse the terms and the fish. The guide goes beyond sushi staples like shrimp, salmon and tuna. Many of the items may not be available locally or only have Japanese te rms. Where possible I have tried to indicate seasonality and availability to the alphabetical list of sushi terms and added my own subjective experience tasting the item. Incidentally, in Japan sushi has its own unit of measurement called Kan カン, which acted as a unit of measurement in the Edo Period equal to 3.75 Kg for fish or the equivalent to either 1 or 2 nigirizushi. Some believe it is 1 sushi, while others believe it is for 2 given how they typically come in a set comprised of pairs. Where possible purchase or order male fish. Female fish give part of their nutrients, and associated taste, to their eggs or roe. Additionally, it has been said that if one can pick a specific cut or part of a fish the rear side nearer to the tail is likely better. It has been moving more and is hence less rough. I recommend treating sushi with respect and focusing on quality as opposed to surrendering to the temptation of low-grade or cheap fish at the hands of uninformed restaurant owners and their chefs.

  • Geographic Pattern of Sushi Product Misdescription in Italy—A Crosstalk Between Citizen Science and DNA Barcoding
    foods Article Geographic Pattern of Sushi Product Misdescription in Italy—A Crosstalk between Citizen Science and DNA Barcoding Anna Maria Pappalardo *, Alessandra Raffa, Giada Santa Calogero and Venera Ferrito Department of Biological, Geological and Environmental Sciences, Section of Animal Biology “M. La Greca”, University of Catania, Via Androne 81, 95124 Catania, Italy; [email protected] (A.R.); [email protected] (G.S.C.); [email protected] (V.F.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: + 39-095-730-6051 Abstract: The food safety of sushi and the health of consumers are currently of high concern for food safety agencies across the world due to the globally widespread consumption of these products. The microbiological and toxicological risks derived from the consumption of raw fish and seafood have been highlighted worldwide, while the practice of species substitution in sushi products has attracted the interest of researchers more than food safety agencies. In this study, samples of sushi were processed for species authentication using the Cytochrome Oxidase I (COI) gene as a DNA barcode. The approach of Citizen Science was used to obtain the sushi samples by involving people from eighteen different Italian cities (Northern, Central and Southern Italy). The results indicate that a considerable rate of species substitution exists with a percentage of misdescription ranging from 31.8% in Northern Italy to 40% in Central Italy. The species most affected by replacement was Thunnus thynnus followed by the flying fish roe substituted by eggs of Mallotus villosus. These results Citation: Pappalardo, A.M.; indicate that a standardization of fish market names should be realized at the international level Raffa, A.; Calogero, G.S.; Ferrito, V.

Many accounts of sushi’s US establishment fore- acceptance; sushi; United ground the role of a small number of key actors, yet underplay States the role of a complex web of large-scale factors that provided the context in which sushi was able to flourish. This article critically reviews existing literature, arguing that sushi’s US popularity arose from contingent, long-term, and gradual processes. It exam- ines US newspaper accounts of sushi during 1945–1970, which suggest the discursive context for US acceptance of sushi was considerably more propitious than generally acknowledged.

Sashimi typically consists of raw fish/ seafood only. Sushi is the generic term used to reference fish/ seafood (cooked or raw) or vegetables rolled around or placed on acidified rice and nori (seaweed). What are the risks? Even though sushi may not always contain raw or Other Food Safety Considerations partially raw fish or seafood, it is considered potentially hazardous, since it has characteristics There is a culinary preference to eat sushi with which could support microbial growth causing rice that has not been chilled.

  • Value of Wholegrain Rice in a Healthy Human Nutrition
    agriculture Review Value of Wholegrain Rice in a Healthy Human Nutrition Marina Carcea Research Centre on Food and Nutrition (CREA-AN), Council for Agricultural Research and Economics (CREA), Via Ardeatina, 546, 00178 Rome, Italy; [email protected]; Tel.: +39-06-5149-4429 Abstract: Rice is one of the most widely consumed cereals in the world. The husks of harvested, unprocessed rice are not digested by humans and need to be removed to obtain edible grains, whereas the bran can be partially (brown rice) or totally removed (white rice). Brown rice is a wholegrain cereal and, as such, is known to have beneficial effects on human health. Recent epidemiological studies have shown that the consumption of whole grains can reduce the risk of metabolic disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and some types of cancer. However, white rice is preferred for reasons connected to appearance, taste, palatability, ease of cooking, tradition, safety, shelf-life, and lack of awareness about its benefits and availability. In this review, the latest scientific reports regarding the nutritional composition of brown rice and the evolution of the technology for its production will be briefly reviewed together with research on nutritional implications of brown rice consumption also in relation to cancer development in humans. A specific chapter is devoted to pigmented rice which, thanks to its composition, has attracted the growing interest of consumers worldwide. The need for further studies to help promote the consumption of wholegrain rice are also discussed. Keywords: brown rice; nutritional quality; brown rice technology; pigmented rice; glycemic re- sponse; cancer Citation: Carcea, M.
