AJİ NİGİRİ (JAPAN)


Aji nigiri is a traditional Japanese type of nigiri sushi. It consists of hand-pressed sushi rice topped with slices of aji or horse mackerel. Aji or horse mackerel is smaller than other mackerel and has a milder flavor. This marinade goes well with ginger (gari), scallions (negi), and mirin.

It is usually marinated in vinegar to remove excess oil and the texture becomes smoother. Before serving, this nigiri sushi is usually topped with negi and is usually consumed with a single bite (or two).
