Jennifer Martinez+FollowLeftover Sushi? Here’s How I Make It Taste Fresh Again!Step 1: Take your leftover sushi out of the fridge and let it sit at room temp for about 10 minutes. This helps the rice soften up a bit. Step 2: Place the sushi pieces on a microwave-safe plate. Cover them lightly with a damp paper towel. This keeps the rice from drying out. Step 3: Microwave on medium power for just 20-30 seconds. Don’t overdo it! You want it just warm, not hot. Step 4: Add a squeeze of lemon or a tiny bit of soy sauce before eating. It seriously brings back that fresh flavor! I always use this trick when I have sushi leftovers and it never disappoints. Give it a try next time! #SushiTips #ReheatSushi #FoodHacks #Food #Cooking40Share
JollyJellybean+FollowWhen first try nigiri sushi, keep these in mind:Clean your hands before anything else. Most sushi spots give you a hot towel—use it, then refold it. If not, just wash up or use hand sanitizer. Forget the chopsticks for nigiri. It’s all about using your hands. Pick up the sushi gently with your thumb and middle finger, making sure the fish is on top. Pour a tiny bit of soy sauce into your dish. Never drown your sushi or pour soy sauce directly on top. Flip the nigiri and dip just the fish side—never the rice. If you want extra heat, add a little wasabi on top. Most chefs already add some between the fish and rice, so don’t overdo it unless you love the kick. Eat the whole piece in one bite if you can. That’s how you get the full flavor and texture. If it’s too big, two bites max—don’t pull it apart. Cleanse your palate with pickled ginger between pieces, not with the sushi itself. That way, every bite tastes fresh. Honestly, these steps make nigiri sushi taste so much better. Try it this way next time! #NigiriSushi #SushiTips #JapaneseFood #Food10Share
