Sustainable Sushi Guide

New Guide Helps You Order Your Next Maki Roll

If sushi might be on your menu this weekend, consider downloading a sustainable sushi guide to bring along with you. We’ve covered sustainable fish guides, but there’s a new guide out this month, and the guides in general are a wonderful, useful way to eat sustainably wherever you are. (To read what we’ve covered, here are past blog posts about mercury dangers and sustainable seafood.)

Sushi restaurants are, apparently, behind the curve when it comes to serving sustainable options, unlike chefs who cook fish at general seafood restaurants, sushi chefs may not know where fish came from and whether it was farmed or caught. And, too many of us don’t even think about sustainability when choosing our maki rolls or platters and order plates and plates of over-fished or endangered fish. For example, right now, mackerel is in and octopus is out, according to the AP on MSNBC.com, while bluefin tuna is very, very out. Other fish to avoid: monkfish, freshwater eel,l and red snapper.

Download a guide from The Monterey Bay Aquarium or The Environmental Defense Fund to use this weekend.

Blue Ocean Institute (www.blueocean.org) has just released its new Guide to Ocean Friendly Seafood. The guide contains 32 color-coded rankings, plus sushi history and etiquette tips from expert sushi advisors Trevor Corson and Hiroko Shimbo.

Our scientists collaborated with MBA on fisheries research, and we also worked with EDF in partnership to release all three guides to the public earlier this week.

Blue Ocean's guide is available on our website or you can order one directly from us too. Watch for our new website, with even more sushi information, coming soon!
