Originating from Japan, sushi has become a contemporary global culinary favorite.

Originally invented as a way to preserve fermented fish, sushi has evolved drastically over the centuries.

From Tokyo Street Food to the World

During the Edo period, quick, fresh sushi became a popular street food due to its speed.

• Origins in traditional preservation
• Revolution during the Edomae era

With modern refrigeration, sushi expanded globally in the 1970s, introducing Western ingredients like avocado and cream cheese.
