Sushi and Food Limoges Boxes for Limoges Collectors
If you are a fan of sushi and Limoges boxes , there are a variety of sushi-related Limoges shapes to highlight your collection with.
Sushi started in Southeast Asia when people began mixing fish and rice in order to preserve the seafood. Japan began doing the same around the 8 th century, and a series of creative experiments with various fish created a cuisine that is now as trendy as it is delicious. It gradually spread all over the world, and though it might take a while to get used to the taste of fish wrapped in vinegar-flavored rice and seaweed for a first-timer, there is definitely some magic to it.
Japanese food in general is quite healthy, revolving around a diet including rice, seafood and vegetables. The Japanese have always made a living from the sea, and they also are heavy producers of rice – they grow it everywhere. They even carve hillsides to make flat fields for growing it. Japan utilizes their resources together to form a practical and popular melding of flavors for an undeniably unique creation. It makes an excellent choice for the health conscious.
