Salmon

Salmon is a relatively new sushi topping that began being used around the mid-1980s. It is characterised by its rich fat content and smooth texture, along with its sweet flavour and vibrant orange flesh. Its mild taste makes it appealing to a wide range of people. Besides being served raw, salmon can be enjoyed seared (aburi), marinated (zuke), or combined with mayonnaise. It is particularly popular in conveyor belt sushi restaurants, consistently ranking highly regardless of the season.
