Do you like sushi?

Mackerel

As its name suggests, mackerel sushi has mackerel on top of rice.
Mackerel is one of the most world-wide consumed fish from Pacific Ocean but it was very difficult to keep the fish fresh in the pastas people couldn't keep its freshness whilst they transported it from a harbour to the city.

In order to deliver the fish to Kyoto, people put salt on mackerels at the harbour in Fukuoka prefecture and made them into sushi.

Since then the mackerel sushi became popular and now it's a famous and traditional Kyoto food that people love to eat for special occasions such as ceremonies.
