Sushi for Everyone
Working with Yuji Haraguchi of Okonomi Market, I designed and illustrated the first edition of Yuji’s Shokuiku 食育 (Food Education) series. We started off the series with everyone’s favorite, sushi. To gather IRL references, I experienced an interactive sushi class from Yuji himself at his East Village fish market. I learned not only how to make different types of sushis, but also the history and different sushi inventions that have adjusted with local taste buds/culture.
