Tip
How to Store Sushi
Storing sushi rolls can be quite tricky, as most are made with a variety of different ingredients. The best approach is to rid the roll of any excess water, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and store it in a sealed container to prevent air from coming into contact. Stored sushi should never be consumed beyond one day.

How to Freeze Sushi
You do not want to freeze sushi. Cooked rice and seaweed are not appetizing when thawed. Most sushi fish is also pre-frozen upon arrival and should not be frozen again.

How to Pick Sushi
Not all fish and shellfish are meant to be consumed raw. To avoid the presence of parasites and bacteria, it’s important that all sushi fish be pre-frozen prior to consumption. This will help to kill things like worms, which are extremely common in salmon. It also goes without saying that fish must be fresh. Most sushi fish is caught, gutted, and immediately iced to ensure that bacteria has little time to begin growing. Be sure to ask a grocery store professional for guidance before purchasing.
