Sushi is a traditional Japanese dish that has gained worldwide popularity. It consists of vinegared rice combined with various ingredients, including seafood, vegetables, and occasionally tropical fruits. Sushi can be served in various forms, such as nigiri (hand-formed rice topped with fish) or maki (rolled sushi).
