Kosher sushi adheres to Jewish food laws and requires fish to be prepared with kosher utensils and all ingredients to be kosher. Many types of sushi can be considered kosher, but non-kosher ingredients like shellfish and non-kosher flavored nori must be avoided. To ensure kosher sushi, inquire with the manufacturer or seller, or seek out establishments that advertise their kosher cooking styles. If opening a sushi bar, verify that products are made with kosher tools and methods and that line chefs are familiar with kosher cooking.
When sushi adheres to Jewish food laws, it is known as kosher sushi. To qualify, the fish in sushi must be prepared with kosher utensils. All ingredients must also be kosher. The fish used, for example, must have both scales and fins according to Jewish law.
Varieties of sushi that are considered kosher foods are widely available. Most of the favorite forms of sushi, such as tempura rolls, sushi rolls, and other combinations, can be considered kosher. Red dragon rolls and caviar rolls can make kosher products. Veggie sandwiches are also generally kosher.
Spicy tuna rolls can adhere to the kosher diet. Popular California rolls are often kosher sushi as well. The best way to figure out whether or not sushi is kosher is to inquire with the manufacturer or seller of the product. If he or she cannot confirm whether the product is kosher sushi, it may not be, and those who adhere to a kosher diet may wish to refrain from purchasing such foods. A rabbi may also be able to answer questions about kosher meals.
Many cafes, restaurants and specific catering services advertise their kosher cooking styles. If an establishment doesn’t openly advertise kosher sushi and other products, you should inquire directly to ensure that the food is kosher. Some sushi items that may be ruled out as non-kosher include shellfish, shrimp, and eels. It doesn’t matter if these products are prepared with kosher tools or not, since the fish used are not kosher.
Several individual, non-fish products used in the preparation of sushi must be kosher for the entire sushi to also qualify as kosher. Soy sauce, ginger, and wasabi are some common components of sushi that can easily be non-kosher. The nori sheets commonly used to make sushi can be problematic when ensuring that sushi is also kosher, due to the possibility of insects being found on the paper. Nori can also be flavored with non-kosher combinations, depending on its manufacturing process. Some types of nori that are flavored with shrimp and may not be kosher at all.
If one were to open a sushi bar, one should check if the products are made with kosher tools and methods before buying them. Purchasing them from a Jewish supplier with a positive reputation would probably be the easiest route to such verification. In order to ensure that kosher sushi is being prepared, he should also ensure that line chefs are familiar with kosher methods and cooking utensils.
