We’ve all grown accustomed to Japanese sushi dishes in restaurants in our local cities around the world. We wanted to delve deeper though, and find the most authentic dishes from Japan (alongside some creative twists!) and share ways that you can make them at home.
The best thing about these recipes is they have been created by people who know wha they are talking about. They come from some of the world’s top bloggers. Make sure you check the rest of the recipes on their sites and bookmark the ones you love.
With most people unable to travel right now (and Japan being a once in a lifetime trip for many) preparing these Japanese sushi dishes at home is the perfect challenge. Grab some top-end produce and sharpen those knives. It’s time to get into the kitchen!
