Upscale Supermarket Sushi


"Upscale Supermarket Sushi" by Kristine Kainer

10x8

Upscale upermarket sushi has more variety in the nigiri section than most chain grocery stores':  imitation crab and surf clam (both belted with a ribbon of nori), bluefin tuna, salmon, yellowtail tuna, shrimp, bonito, and mackerel are the freshly caught and sliced offerings.  Instead of the typical maki (rice surrounding a filling and encased with nori), uramaki  is offered in which rice is the outer layer surrounding the filling and nori.  As to be expected, the price is noticeably higher as well.  Set against a black background, this sushi looks stunningly gem-like which befits these treasures from the sea.
