Japanese Sushi
The General Sushi Calories That Can Be Found In These Snacks by Steve Henderson
As the public becomes more aware of the need for healthy alternatives to their menu selections, the nutritional value of sushi has come into question. Many people are concerned with sushi calories since it is a common diet food. There is a large variety of these popular Japanese snack foods that should be considered, and to complicate it further, the contents can also be altered to meet the personal tastes of the individual.
Chirashi, or chirashizushi, is served in a dish and is commonly confused with domburi. It contains mushrooms, seafood, and vegetables that have been spread over the special sushi rice. Depending upon the type of seafood used the calorie content averages about 600 per serving. The count can be changed by omitting the rice, a high carbohydrate food.
Gunkan has a count that puts snack packs to shame. Gunkanzushi contains a count that is less than 100. This unique twist is made with a seaweed cup filled with rice and seafood, usually fish eggs or sea urchin.
Inarizushi is a great choice for those that enjoy tofu. Aburaage, a tofu bag, is deep fried and stuffed with rice. This handy snack is only 100 calories.
Nigiri is made from small sticky rice balls. These balls are then topped with seafood or egg depending on the desires of the person ordering it. Most common toppings are egg, eel, shrimp, octopus, and squid. Because of the variety offered in topping choices the caloric value changes but averages at about 100.
A western favorite is the roll. These rolls are actually called norimaki and provide a wide range of selections for taste sensations. This snack is rolled with sticky rice and some sort of seafood, then wrapped with the signature seaweed sheet. This form has servings which are around 100 calories.
Lunch box sushi is presented in a very distinguished way. Oshizushi was given this nickname because it is a fish patty that is mashed into a wooden box. This traveling snack also provides a caloric intake of about 100.
With a shape similar to an ice cream cone, temaki is a great one the run food. Nori seaweed is wrapped in a cone shape then rice, seafood and vegetables are used to fill the space. The literal translation of temakizushi is hand roll.
With its introduction to the Western world, these snacks quickly found their way into the spotlight and expanded its traditional Japanese role of a special occasion food. The food is always made with the signature sticky rice, and processed with the sushi vinegar to lend the flavor it is known for. There are other foods that are similar to it, but without the required vinegar they are not considered the same, and given different names.
These snacks have many possibilities when it comes to choices which can greatly affect the sushi calories. People who are strictly following a caloric intake will often remove or simply not eat the rice that comes with the food. These are a great source of nutrition, but be cautious of the consumption of raw foods.
