Zen of Fish
Trevor Corson
Looking at the culture of sushi, this book describes the different types of organisms that compose sushi, their behaviour, biology, evolutionary origins, ecological niches, and nutritional properties. It discusses the seasonal progression of the organisms and explores the techniques by which they're harvested.

Posted by bkoplitz (1 year ago ) Essentially this book is a bible of sushi. And it is very fun to read and entertaining.
It is also very interesting, both because of the information about sushi, which fundamentally began as Japanese street food, but also about cooking science in general. For example, what cooking actually does to chemistry of food.
I remember my first piece of sashimi that really stopped me in my tracks. The book is filled with a lot of tips to help you have more of those sushi-based epiphanies. My only warning, the book makes you really hungry.
