How to eat Sushi?

Eating sushi is like having a tiny dinner party on your plate, you just need to know how to invite everyone in.

Sushi is food made with rice, fish, and sometimes vegetables, all rolled together or laid out neatly. To eat it, you use hand, no fork or spoon needed!

How to Hold It

Imagine holding a sandwich in your hand, that’s how you hold sushi. Just pick it up with your fingers, like you would grab a cookie.

How to Eat It

Now, take a bite! It’s like eating a little piece of the ocean. You can eat it plain, or add wasabi (a spicy green paste) and soy sauce (a salty brown liquid), which are like extra flavors that make your taste buds dance.

If you're eating nigiri, sushi with just rice and fish on top, you can dip the fish in soy sauce before you eat it. It’s like giving your food a little hug of flavor!

Sometimes, there's rice paper holding everything together, that’s called maki. You just take a bite, and the flavors all come together like friends playing together at recess.
