Trend 2022: Crushed ice for Sushi

There is a new trend in 2022 and it is here to stay: crushed ice used to accompany sushi dishes.

More and more restaurants are joining the trend of crushed ice used with sushi to give their dishes a touch of originality and freshness.

Contrary to what one might think, the ice used to accompany any Asian fish-based cold dish not only contributes to a more appealing presentation of the dish itself, but also improves the quality of the dish.

From ICE TECH, we want to give you 3 reasons why an Asian cuisine restaurant should start using ice in its kitchen.

3 Reasons to use ice in Asian food restaurants

In 2022, Asian food restaurants have chosen to use ice for their sushi dishes for 3 reasons in particular:

1.Humidity

Ice allows you to maintain moisture and ensures that the product remains fresh, shiny and retains its weight. Being in contact with ice, the product does not dehydrate and maintains its properties.

2.Quality

Accompanying the sushi with crushed ice guarantees the quality and good condition of the fish.

It allows products to be cooled quickly and is very useful for restaurants as it guarantees faster service.

In addition, it ensures the ideal humidity levels, preserving the original qualities of freshness and prolonging the shelf life of the food.

3. Presentation

Ice is an essential element for the presentation of different types of sushi and fish. It contributes to an appealing presentation of the product on the plate when serving it to the customer.
