Cooked sushi rice is a key component of Japanese cuisine, known for its sticky texture and mild flavor. Made using short-grain white rice, it is traditionally seasoned with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt, creating a slightly sweet and tangy profile perfect for sushi rolls, nigiri, and rice bowls. While rich in carbohydrates, sushi rice is low in fat and cholesterol-free, providing quick energy for the body. However, its relatively high glycemic index means it may cause spikes in blood sugar for some individuals. Adding fiber-rich vegetables or lean protein alongside sushi rice can balance its nutritional profile. Sushi rice reflects centuries of culinary tradition, embodying both simplicity and versatility in Japanese cooking.
