I just had lunch at the counter of Sushiden 49th street between Fifth/Mad (definitely right up there with Hatsuhana) and encountered something new......scallion tips on a nigiri. Had a nori belt and had a lump of moromi (type of miso) on top. The Itamae called it, I think, Menegi, explaining that it wasa Kyushu food and because their fish buyer hapened to be from Kyushu he picked some up. Something you'd rarely see even in Japan. The scallion tips were small and thin, sort of like chives. And the taste was not a strong scallion taste. Maybe others here may have had this before. M |
