When you mention "sushi" vegetarian and vegan options may not be the first ones to come to mind, but they are common and offer a refreshing dining experience.
Other toppings
Often the above-mentioned ingredients can be found in combination with one another. For example, cucumber and avocado in a sushi roll, or a mixture of diced summer vegetables on a gunkan-maki. Other Japanese pickles are also common toppings, such as ume (pickled plum), seasoned nori, and hijiki (high fiber seaweed).
In a sushi counter setting, the chef may offer custom vegetarian dishes that combine seasonal vegetables and accompanying pickled ingredients. We're fans and think you will be, too.
