While sushi has a long history in Japan, salmon nigiri is a relatively recent innovation. Traditionally, salmon wasn't widely used in sushi due to concerns about parasites. Its popularity surged with the introduction of farmed Norwegian salmon in the 1980s, which was considered safe for raw consumption and quickly embraced by the Japanese market.

Nigiri Salmon represents the Japanese culinary philosophy of highlighting the natural flavors of high-quality ingredients with minimal processing. It is an integral part of sushi culture, often enjoyed in formal settings or as a casual meal.
Presentation
The presentation of Nigiri Salmon is crucial, reflecting the Japanese emphasis on aesthetics. The salmon slice should be expertly cut and draped gracefully over the rice, showcasing its color and texture.
Sushi Etiquette
There are specific etiquette rules surrounding sushi consumption. For example, it is generally considered polite to eat nigiri in one or two bites and to dip the fish side into the soy sauce, not the rice.
Seasonal Variations
While salmon nigiri is available year-round, the flavor and quality of the salmon can vary depending on the season and origin. Some restaurants may offer different types of salmon based on availability.

Nigiri Salmon offers a delicate balance of flavors, highlighting the natural richness of salmon paired with the subtle tang of vinegared rice.
The primary flavor is the buttery, slightly sweet, and clean taste of the raw salmon. This is complemented by the slightly sour and subtly sweet taste of the sushi rice (shari), seasoned with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. A touch of wasabi provides a pungent kick that cuts through the richness of the salmon. Soy sauce (shoyu) adds umami and saltiness, enhancing the overall flavor profile. The nori strip (if present) contributes a slightly briny and roasted seaweed flavor.

Freshness is Key
Ensure the salmon is of the highest quality and freshness. Look for vibrant color, firm texture, and a clean, non-fishy smell.
Wasabi Usage
Use wasabi sparingly. A small dab is sufficient to enhance the flavor without overpowering the salmon.
Soy Sauce Dip
Dip only the fish side into the soy sauce to avoid the rice absorbing too much and becoming overly salty.
Temperature Matters
Nigiri salmon should be served chilled, but not ice-cold. Allowing the salmon to warm slightly enhances its flavor.
