the history of sushi

壽司，日本飲食文化中的一顆璀璨明珠。這道如今風靡全球的日本料理，其實一開始並非我們今天熟知的米飯與新鮮魚肉的結合，而是作為保存魚肉的發酵食品。在中古時期，壽司從街頭小吃逐漸走向貴族宴席，見證了日本社會結構的變遷與美食文化的昇華。壽司不僅僅限於冷食，歷史上還有熱壽司、木屑壽司，甚至熊肉壽司等特殊風味。古代的美食家們曾經描述過一些帶有刺鼻氣味的壽司，例如「魚鷹壽司」，其風味與現今的南韓生魟魚片相似，這些都是今天難以想像的珍稀美食。戰後，壽司經歷了重大變革，特別是在軍事占領期間，握壽司的尺寸變得更小，讓食客能夠品嚐到更多不同種類的魚料，這種變化也促使壽司文化迅速傳播至全球。本書將帶你深入探討壽司的發展脈絡，從古老的發酵食品，到如今的國際料理，涵蓋了飲食文化、製作技術、美學觀察及其背後的精神符號。＊注意——這本書充滿了誘人的食材描述，讓你讀著讀著便口水直流！＊書中穿插了二十多道歷史與創新食譜，讓你在飽讀之餘，還能大飽口福。＊台灣首部壽司歷史專著，懂吃到吃懂就看這一本。美味推薦•《就算知道了也對人生沒有幫助的日本小知識》版主｜梅用知世• 不務正業的博物館吧｜郭怡汝「從發酵魚到風靡全球的美食，壽司走過的路比你想的還要精彩！《壽司的歷史》不僅帶你探索壽司的起源，還附上二十多道食譜，絕對是壽司迷和美食歷史愛好者的必讀之作。讀完保證讓你吃壽司時，多了份回味無窮的滿足感！」──不務正業的博物館吧｜郭怡汝國際讚譽「《壽司的歷史》經過了廣泛且詳盡的研究，引用了許多歷史與現代的數據，書中充滿了引人入勝且常常令人發笑的軼事，風格輕鬆非學術性。若你渴望了解壽司歷史中鮮為人知且有趣的細節，那麼這本書將滿足你對知識的渴望。」—《日經新聞》「這本書在食譜與散文集中找到了一個謙遜的平衡點，作者拉斯的寫作風格輕鬆、不被學術的重擔所束縛。他在書中穿插了個人插曲，回憶起品嚐壽司的經歷，這些片段為他的壽司編年史增添了光彩。儘管如此，正是那些鮮為人知的壽司知識，讓《壽司的歷史》成為壽司迷和好奇心旺盛的讀者必備之書。」—《日本時報》「那些想要突破鮪魚、鮭魚、酪梨的舒適區域，並深入了解壽司的人應該讀讀拉斯的書。這位美國飲食史學家專注於日本的飲食文化，為我們呈現了一部生動的壽司歷史。」—《法蘭克福匯報》「從中世紀開始，一直講述到當代，這本全面且極具可讀性的書，最適合在旁邊放一盤壽司（或許還有一些清酒）一起閱讀。」—月刊
