  • The History of Nihonbashi Uogashi
    — Unearthing the Four-Hundred-Year History of a Wholesale Fish Market — The History of Nihonbashi Uogashi Part 2: The Popularity of Fish in Edo By Issei Tomioka A book titled, Edo Hanjoki, by Terakado Seiken (1796–1868) that described the manners and customs of the people of Edo near the end of the Edo period (1603–1867), notes that the people loved fish so much that they said their bones would fall apart if they went without fish for three days. Several tens of thousands of fish were consumed each day. This book also depicted, in a humorous man- ner, the dynamic way in which the Uogashi, or wholesale fish market, handled their sea of fish. Originally, the Uogashi began as a way to supply fish to the shogunate. As it developed, however, the fish-eating culture of Edo flourished. Let’s take a look at the fish-eating culture that bloomed in Edo through events that took place in the Uogashi. Tokugawa Ieyasu Loved have been, “Bring me good fish.” The establishment of the Fish Uogashi as a way to supply fish to the shogunate may have Shortly after Mori Magoemon’s been the result of Ieyasu’s fondness for fish. group of fishermen from Tsukuda Illustrations village, on the northern shore of The Uncompensated Supply of Fish to the Kazan Mori (Property of the Wholesales Osaka bay, started net fishing in the Shogunate Co-operative of Tokyo Fish Market) sea near Edo, they began catching a How was fish supplied to the shogunate?

  • The History of Sushi
    DreamReader.net History – Beginner level The History of Sushi Sushi was first made over 2000 years ago in Southeast Asia. Back then, people used to put salt on the fish to keep it from going bad. They would put the salted fish in a container with rice. After a few months, the fish could be eaten but the rice was thrown away. This sushi became popular all over China and it was introduced into Japan. The Japanese preferred to eat rice together with fish, so they ate the rice and fish together while the fish was still raw. Later in the Edo period, Japanese people started making special rice for sushi. They combined rice with vinegar and vegetables. At the beginning of the 19th century, food stalls started selling sushi in Tokyo. It was very popular. Then in the 20th century, chefs from Tokyo started moving to other parts of Japan. They helped to make sushi popular all over Japan. Recently sushi has become a popular food in many other countries. Sushi is now eaten every day by millions of people all over the world.

For this purpose qualitative and quantitative researches were organized and held for one and a half years. Another object of the research was to show prof- itability of the sushi-bar in quickly changing political and economical situation for the town, which depends on tourist flow a lot. Such sources as literature, questionnaires for citizens and visitors of the town, interviews with qualified teachers of Saimaa University and independent Lithua- nian and Russian sushi-cookers’ opinions are used in thesis. As the result of this project a negative answer has been reached for the main question of a sushi-bar is interesting and attractive in Imatra nowadays. The re- search shows that for progressive and developing future of the sushi-bar better political, financial and economical conditions are required: lack of incoming tour- ists from Russia, decreasing salaries of locals, increasing level of unemploy- ment and losing of interest for foreign customers to come to Imatra shows nega- tive conditions to plan it now.

    SUSHI TRAIN The History of Sushi Originally raw fish was pressed between layers of salt and White Plate 5.50 Egg Nigiri weighed by stone. After a few weeks the stone was removed and replaced with a light cover, a few months after that, the Cucumber Small Roll fermented fish was placed on rice and ready to eat. Avocado Small Roll Some restaurants in Tokyo still serve this original style sushi, Deep Fried Bean Curd called Naresushi (made with freshwater carp). Its flavour is so strong that it obscures the fishes identity altogether (Naresushi is an acquired taste). It wasn’t till the 18th century that a chef Blue Plate 6.50 named Yohei decided to forego the fermentation and serve Salmon Nigiri sushi in something resembling its present form. It became very Boiled Prawn Nigiri popular. Squid Nigiri Jellyfish Salad Two styles of sushi subsequently emerged. Firstly, Edo style sushi from Tokyo and secondly, Kansai style sushi from the city Seaweed Salad of Osaka. Salmon Small Roll Cooked Tuna Big Roll The Edo style from Tokyo features a select bit of seafood on a Vegetable Big Roll small pad of seasoned rice (called nigiri sushi). This is the most familiar form of sushi outside Japan.

    Comments Roll Sushi, Roll: Defining “Sushi Grade” for the Consumer and the Sushi Bar Brandt T. Bowman* I. INTRODUCTION Behind the glass partition of the sushi counter, a young sushi chef meticulously slices a fresh piece of Bluefin tuna, carefully molds it around a ball of vinegared rice, and artfully arranges it for service. The young chef exercises ancient precision, but such a display is neither for the swanky hipster at the table across the room nor for the self-indulgent businessman seated at the bar. Instead, the young chef exhibits such craftsmanship with honor because his ancestors have taught him to; he is the modern-day samurai.1 The honor ends at the sushi counter however; globalization and capitalism have diluted the ancient art in exchange for mass production and profit margin. This departure from tradition does more than diminish sushi’s cultural significance: it creates new risks when ancient * J.D.
