About Nigiri with eel

Nigiri with eel is a Japanese sushi favorite featuring a slice of tender, grilled freshwater eel (unagi) placed atop hand-formed vinegared rice. The eel is typically brushed with a sweet, savory glaze known as kabayaki sauce, enhancing its rich, smoky flavor. Packed with protein, eel contributes essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health. It also provides vitamins A and D and is a good source of selenium and phosphorus. Despite its nutritional benefits, kabayaki sauce can be high in sugar and sodium, making moderation key for a balanced diet. Nigiri with eel captures the essence of Japanese cuisine by combining simple, fresh ingredients with bold, harmonious flavors, creating a dish that delights both the taste buds and the senses.
