Los elementos básicos al momento de consumir sushi son: un plato, Hashi (o palillos de madera), Hashi Oki (o posa-palillos), wasabi y gari (o jengibre curtido).
- Los japoneses aconsejan comerlo con palillos o cubiertos de madera, o directamente con la mano; pero se debe evitar el uso de utensilios metálicos, ya que los mismos alterarÃan el sabor de la comida.
- Para comenzar se vacÃa una cantidad de salsa de soja en un pocillo pequeño. Luego se toma un poco de wasabi con un palillo y se diluye en la salsa de soja.
- Coger una pieza de sushi con los palillos y untarlo dentro de la salsa de soja levemente, pero sin mojarlo por el lado del arroz, para no descomponer la pieza.
- Llevar la pieza completa a la boca y comerla de una vez.
- Cuando no se estén usando los palillos, dejarlos sobre el Hashi Oki o sobre el plato.
- No se considera de buena educación dar comida a otro comensal con los propios palillos, ni jugar con ellos, mantenerlos separados, pinchar la comida, o moverlos por el aire.
- Entre bocado y bocado comer trozos de gari, que ayuda a limpiar el paladar de los sabores.
- Tratar de dejar el plato completamente limpio de alimento, especialmente de arroz.
- No comer wasabi solo en gran cantidad porque es muy picante.
