Sashimi will be approximately ¾ oz per slice.
Portion size on sushi will vary due to the ingredients/preparation of each roll.
Sushi Rolls are all 5 pieces.
The word “sushi” refers to vinegar rice, or seasoned rice. A sushi roll is actually about the rice itself; the ingredients that are rolled inside or outside do not affect the rice. Sushi chefs spend years perfecting the “seasoning” for their rice. They have years of training and all they are allowed to do is make the rice. They don’t even get to touch the fish! Each Sushi chef has his own characteristic and unique “seasoning”.
The word “sashimi” means pierced meat, in our case it is ‘pierced’ with a knife; i.e. uncooked fish sliced very thinly.
