1. Sushi's what's under that name
Nowadays sushi is nothing more than a dish made with rice, which is especially popular due to the speed of its preparation. At one time, this dish was prepared for many months because it required a long fermentation process. The basis of sushi is rice, but to prepare it, we also need noodles, fish, seafood that can be heat-treated, and various kinds of vegetables. The most popular additives to sushi are ginger or soybean and prepared on the basis of wasabi and sauce.2. The nutritional value of sushi
Supporters of sushi emphasize that they value this food especially for its high biological, aesthetic and sensory qualities. It is also worth noting that this dish is characterized by high nutritional value. The rice used in its preparation provides complex carbohydrates, which are the main energy component of our diet. Fish, seafood and watermelons are a source of high bio-value protein. However, these products are also the source of unsaturated fatty acids of the omega-3 group which are especially important in preventing disorders of the coronary system.3. Is sushi always healthy?
Because of its popularity, sushi is increasingly served in fast-food bars, but does that mean it's unhealthy? The answer to this question is simple It all depends on the ingredients used to make it. Unfortunately, to our disadvantage, it has become popular to add vinegar to rice, based on rice acids, which gives it its distinctive flavor. There would be nothing wrong with that if not for the fact that this soup is usually added in huge quantities, which also drastically reduce the nutritional value of the product.4.
