Cathy Foulston writes: >So can someone explain the difference between sushi and sashimi? Cathy, your dictionary is indeed correct, as you mentioned. Sushi involves rice, specifically rice with the sliced raw fish wrapped around it. Sashimi is just the sliced raw fish by itself, with no rice. The making of sushi is taken very seriously; the rice must be of a certain texture and prepared properly, and there is a strong aesthetic as well as culinary element involved. The closest analogy I can think of is the cha-no-yu, or classical Japanese tea ceremony. Dave Garrett Department of Mathematics, Rice University, Houston, TX garrett@rice.edu
