The origin of sushi is said to be in the “culture of fermenting and preserving fish” in Southeast Asia.
It was introduced to Japan around the Nara period and was initially a fermented food called “narezushi”.
In the Edo period, the prototype of today’s sushi using vinegared rice, “Hayazushi”, was born.
In particular, Edomae nigiri sushi has gained popularity as a fast food that can be easily eaten at street food stalls and has spread to the world.
