In Japanese cuisine, sushi is a food made of vinegared rice combined with a topping or filling of fish, seafood, vegetables, or egg.

The topping may be raw, cooked, or marinated; and may be served scattered in a bowl of rice, rolled in a strip of seaweed, laid onto hand-formed clumps of rice, or stuffed in a small tofu pouch.

Boiled sushi rice is flavored with a sweetened rice vinegar and topped with/rolled around raw fish.

There are many types of sushi: for example, nigiri sushi is thin slices of fish seasoned with wasabi and wrapped around rice, and hosomaki and futomaki are thin and thick sushi rolls. The vegetables, fish and rice are wrapped in sheets of seaweed, called Nori.
