Sushi is a traditional Japanese dish that combines vinegared rice with a variety of fresh ingredients, including raw or cooked seafood, vegetables, and sometimes tropical fruits. Served in bite-sized portions, sushi is renowned for its delicate flavors and artistry. Common varieties include nigiri (fish atop rice), maki (rolled sushi), and sashimi (just slices of fish). Rich in protein from fish like salmon or tuna, sushi often provides omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for heart health. Seaweed, frequently used in rolls, offers vitamins, minerals, and fiber. However, sushi rice is usually sweetened with sugar, and some rolls include high-calorie additions like mayonnaise-based sauces or fried components like tempura. Sodium levels can also rise with soy sauce dips. Sushi can be made healthier by choosing simple rolls, limiting sauces, and pairing it with fresh vegetables or miso soup. It's a flavorful and nutritious option when consumed mindfully.
