Shima Sushi
A delightful sushi specialty from Hachijojima, Tokyo!
Shima Sushi introduction
Shima Sushi (島寿司, Shima sushi) is made using fresh fish caught around the island, such as mahi-mahi, sea bream, golden eye snapper, striped jack, amberjack, and bonito. The fish is marinated in soy sauce, and the sushi rice is made slightly sweeter with sugar. Instead of wasabi, it is uniquely paired with spicy mustard, giving it a distinctive flavor and appearance. Shima Sushi is a beloved traditional dish representing the culinary culture of Hachijojima.
