Chirashi Sushi
Sushi originated as special celebratory food in Japan, with Chirashi type especially easy to serve for a large gathering. It is said to have originated during Edo period when citizens were demanded frugality by eating only "1 dish & 1 soup" for meals. Cleverly incorporating many ingredients into "one dish", recipe is differentiated by regions with Northern half using Edomae Fresh Fish, and Southern half using only cooked ingredients (Gomoku). Our recipe incorporates the best of both worlds!
