In Japanese cuisine, sushi (ŽõŽi, é½, é¶, sushi?) is a food made of vinegared rice, usually topped with other ingredients including fish (cooked or uncooked) and vegetables. Sushi as an English word has come to refer to a complete dish with rice and toppings; this is the sense used in this article. The original word Japanese: ŽõŽi sushi, written in kanji, means "snack" and refers to the rice, but not fish or other toppings.[1] Outside of Japan, sushi is sometimes misunderstood to mean the raw fish by itself, or even any fresh raw-seafood dishes [2]. In Japan, sliced raw fish alone is called sashimi and is distinct from sushi.
