About Nigiri with shrimp

Nigiri with shrimp, or Ebi Nigiri, is a staple of Japanese cuisine, consisting of a small oblong mound of vinegared sushi rice topped with a cooked, butterflied shrimp. This sushi item is celebrated for its simplicity and delicate flavor. Shrimp is a low-calorie, protein-rich seafood that provides essential nutrients such as selenium, vitamin B12, and iodine, which support metabolism and overall health. The sushi rice, lightly seasoned with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt, adds a hint of sweetness and tang, though it contributes carbohydrates to the dish. Nigiri is usually served without additional fats or oils, making it a relatively lean choice. However, sodium levels can be elevated depending on the soy sauce used for dipping, so moderation is key for those monitoring their sodium intake. Ebi Nigiri combines artistry and nutrition in a bite-sized serving, offering a wholesome yet indulgent experience in every piece.
