If not, do you have any tips for finding sushi grade fish. food-safety fish sushi salmon japanese-cuisine Not being aware of your location, some general tips: 1) Buy your fish from a fishmonger, and tell him/her what you are using it for. You want to do business with somebody who's business is selling fish and only selling fish. They are going to know what's been stored to eaten raw standards in a way that the just above minimum wage fish guy at your grocery store doesn't. 2) Don't buy it early. Buy it the day you mean to consume it or the day that you going to prep it. This question can help walk you through that 3) Take a cooler to get your fish. You have to maintain the freshness, that means not allowing it raise in temperature anymore than you have to.

I wouldn't trust anything from a grocery-store fish counter to be fit for raw consumption.I've never bought anything from them, but it looks like they're probably a good source if you want to buy online. If you're in the SF Bay Area, there are a number of places to buy it. I usually go to Tokyo Fish Market on San Pablo in Berkeley. Living far away from the ocean for much of my life- fishmongers and freshly caught fish are hard to come by. Luckily that doesn't matter that much. The freshest fish are the ones that are frozen on the boat they are caught on. Suburban grocery store fish counters can sell you frozen fish in small quantities. I buy tuna or salmon steaks in .5 pound portions. They make excellent and very fresh tasting sushi when thawed. It will keep indefinitely when solidly frozen but as soon as you thaw it the normal rules apply- use it that day or it won't be fresh anymore. So don't order the fresh or the fresher fish. At Finney's, if you're wise, you'll say, "Fetch me the finest, French-fried freshest fish that Finney fries!"

I've used "regular" salmon for sushi once or twice, but the advice I received was to either buy it frozen or freeze it yourself to kill off any parasites.

Now just east of the city’s financial district, the area still hosts a postcard collection of historic buildings. A trot through Toronto’s past will escort you to the Toronto Islands—picturesque mini-worlds away from the pulsing financial core that provides a silvery, cinematic backdrop.

), located at the corner of Jarvis Street and Front Street. Built in 1803, the South Market was the city’s first city hall and now houses a fragrant cornucopia (and grazing ground) of exotic vittles: over 50 vendors hawk such savories as Québécois artisanal cheeses, fruits, honeys, breads, and glamorous proteins (sushi-grade fish; smoked arctic char; caviar).After a fortifying wander, walk north from Front Street along Jarvis until you reach King Street, turn left and walk west to Church Street where you’ll find (2) St. James Cathedral (King and Church Streets; www.stjamescathedral.on.ca). The cathedral first opened its grand doors for services on June 19, 1853; the 328-foot-tall (100-meter-tall) spire poked out from the cityscape, guiding ships into the harbor. From King and Church, walk south on Church until you reach Front Street again and can behold the red brick (3) Flatiron Building (49 Wellington Street E). Dating back to 1892, the flatiron was built as the head office of the Gooderham and Worts distilling company.

With the city’s sharp, silver corporate towers as its backdrop, the Flatiron offers a classic Louvre-and-Pyramid-style. Past-present photo opportunity: the blade-silver cityscape offering a cold contrast with the curves and color of the old world.Turn left on York Street and head south toward Lake Ontario until you reach Queen’s Quay; turn left, walk three blocks east to the foot of Bay Street, where you will find the public ferry docks behind the Westin Harbour Castle Hotel. The ferries (fee) take passengers on a blustery ride to the (6) Toronto Islands (www.toronto.ca/parks/island). There are eight islands, all linked by footbridges. (7) Ward’s Island is the most charming and stroll-happy, with its pedestrian-only streets and Snow White-style bucolic cottages. Stroll along the boardwalk, wend your way through the curling pathways, and behold the best view of the city. Plan for a sunset ferry ride back to town, when buildings and sky blush with pink.
