Don Doh Cozinha Nikkei
Sushi's origins trace back to Southeast Asia, where fish was preserved in fermented rice. This preservation technique migrated to Japan, evolving into what we now recognize as sushi during the Edo period (1603-1868). Sashimi, meaning 'pierced body,' has an even older history, predating sushi and highlighting the appreciation for fresh, high-quality fish.
Sushi and sashimi are deeply embedded in Japanese culture, representing artistry, respect for ingredients, and the importance of presentation. The ritual of preparing and consuming these dishes reflects a connection to nature and a commitment to quality.
Itamae (Sushi Chef)

Presentation
The visual appeal of sushi and sashimi is as important as the taste. Dishes are carefully arranged to showcase the colors and textures of the ingredients.
Etiquette
There are specific etiquette rules for eating sushi and sashimi, such as using chopsticks correctly, dipping only the fish into soy sauce, and eating sushi in one bite.
Combinado Don Doh offers a harmonious blend of flavors, showcasing the delicate umami of raw fish, the subtle tang of vinegared rice, and the sharp kick of wasabi. The textures range from the smooth, buttery richness of tuna to the firm, slightly chewy texture of octopus.
The flavor profile is heavily dependent on the freshness and quality of the seafood. Common flavors include the rich, oily taste of salmon, the mild and slightly sweet taste of white fish (like sea bream), the briny taste of sea urchin, and the subtle sweetness of shrimp. Soy sauce adds a salty umami depth, while wasabi provides a pungent heat that clears the palate. Pickled ginger (gari) offers a sweet and spicy counterpoint, refreshing the palate between different types of sushi and sashimi.
Soy Sauce Usage
Avoid saturating the rice with soy sauce. Dip only the fish portion to enhance the flavor without overpowering it.
Wasabi Placement
Instead of mixing wasabi into the soy sauce, place a small amount directly on the fish. This allows you to control the intensity of the heat.
Eating Order
Start with milder flavors like white fish and progress to richer, oilier fish like salmon or tuna. This allows you to fully appreciate the subtle differences in taste.
Freshness is Key
Always choose reputable establishments that prioritize fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best and safest experience.
