Japanese cuisine is among the world’s most intricate cuisine with a wide variety of ingredient selection in the play. The careful selection of fine, fresh ingredients is highly essential in the making of Japanese dishes. In case where meat like that of fish is required in a dish, most are caught fresh from sea to create just the right menu that brings out the authentic scents and flavors of unique fishiness, yet delicate and subtle in a way. Although there are numerous components that make up Japanese food as a whole, one of the most important components that perfectly craft Japanese dishes is no other than the skills of the knife.

A Japanese knife is similar to that of a Samurai’s blade – it holds ultimate power and a necessity to process varying cooking processes, of that includes: slicing, cutting, and chopping. There are many special techniques and traditional Japanese skills Japanese chefs and culinary professionals learn to craft intricate menus like that of Sushi and Sashimi.

Although it seems like sushi is just a piece of cooked rice topped with varying toppings made out of numerous meat types, the process to authentically craft one isn’t that simple. Rice forming in sushi-making is among one of the hardest processes that requires a great understanding of rice and its characteristics when combined with vinegar, salt, and sugar. The selection of raw ingredients and the right sized meat slices to be placed on top of cooked, seasoned Japanese sushi rice makes it much harder than one may think this menu appears to be. Without excellent skills of the blade, it would be difficult to craft delicious, mouth-watering sushi pieces.
