Rokuryoku (6th Floor Edomae Sushi)

The ingredients and cooking methods are faithfully reproduced! An authentic Edomae sushi set showcasing meticulous craftsmanship
At Edomae Sushi "Rokuryoku," where you can enjoy seasonal nigiri sushi prepared by skilled artisans, we offer nigiri sets that authentically recreate sushi, which was sometimes called fast food during the Edo period, using the ingredients and cooking methods used at the time. In the days before refrigeration, fish was not eaten raw; instead, each ingredient was painstakingly prepared by scalding and marinating it in vinegar. The tuna is lightly blanched and then dipped in a special sauce, while the whitebait is steamed in sake and topped with a slightly sweet shrimp oboro. The plump steamed conger eel, an essential ingredient in Edomae sushi, is finished with a special tsume vinegar. The vinegared rice is made with "Yukiwakamaru" rice from Yamagata Prefecture, known for its firm grains and chewy texture, blended with fragrant red vinegar and sweet rice vinegar. The castella-style omelet, a sushi restaurant staple, is branded with an original stamp from the "Delicious Ukiyo-e Exhibition." "Sushi" was fast food in the Edo period, and eating slowly may have been taboo at the time, but each and every piece of nigiri is painstakingly prepared. Please enjoy.
