About Toro nigiri

Toro Nigiri is a Japanese delicacy featuring a slice of fatty tuna belly placed atop a small bed of vinegared sushi rice. Originating from traditional Japanese cuisine, Toro is prized for its rich flavor and buttery texture. The sushi rice is typically seasoned with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt, complementing the natural sweetness of the tuna. As a source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, the tuna provides heart-healthy benefits, supporting brain function and reducing inflammation. However, Toro is one of the fattiest cuts of tuna, making it higher in calories compared to leaner fish options. Additionally, overconsumption of tuna may pose concerns related to mercury levels. Overall, Toro Nigiri combines luxurious flavor with some nutritional benefits, but moderation is key for balancing its indulgence with health considerations.
