maki

en-noun

maki (usually uncountable, plural makis or maki)

Tightly rolled makis are designed to appeal to the eye--the negi hamachi maki, for instance, is bursting with perfectly centered yellowtail and scallions.

2001 March 2, Laura Levy Shatkin, “What's New”, in Chicago Reader:

makizushi, a form of sushi that is rolled.

maki-e

probably etymologically unrelated, although it does come from Japanese, like the sushi term...

sashimi (usually uncountable, plural sashimis or sashimi)

Borrowed from Japanese 刺身 (sashimi, literally “sticking into; slicing + flesh, meat”, from the way the flesh of the fish is sliced).

“I want three sashimis and one large squid tempura. And get the man another drink.” The geisha bowed.

1979, Jim Harrison, chapter 4, in Legends of the Fall, New York, N.Y.: Grove Press, published 2016, →ISBN, page 178:

A sashimi of beef—thin peppered strips seared to a point just past rawness—was served with a frothy dressing of egg whites whipped with mustard and herbs, including tarragon and chives. The two sashimis may be the only dishes I enjoyed at La Petite Chaya that are still on the menu, […]

1983 November, Caroline Bates, “Spécialités de la Maison—California: Bernard’s, The Grand House, La Petite Chaya”, in Jane Montant, editor, Gourmet: The Magazine of Good Living, volume XLIII, number 11, New York, N.Y.: Gourmet, Inc., →ISSN, →OCLC, page 90, column 2:

“Two Caesars to begin, mine with extra anchovies,” Carlsson says, “then, let’s see, Miss Preston’s a fish lover, so do the tuna and sand dab sashimi as a main for her, and I’ll have the free-range as usual.” / “One sashimi, one chicken. Very good, sir.”

1996, Michael M[ackenzie] Thomas, “Part Two: A Baker’s Dozen”, in Baker’s Dozen: A Novel, New York, N.Y.: Farrar Straus Giroux, →ISBN, section II, page 88:

A dish consisting of thin slices or pieces of raw fish or meat.

The display and garnishing of the sashimi is an important testing ground for the chef’s artistic originality. After all, the fish are raw, and beyond making sure that they are fresh and of high quality, there is little to be done about the flavor. Therefore the chef must become an artist if the sashimi are to be memorable.

1977, Thomas Hoover, “Private Zen: Flowers and Food”, in Zen Culture, New York, N.Y.: Random House, →ISBN, part III (The Rise of Popular Zen Culture: 1573 to the Present), page 221:

You will recall that, contrary to the relative appearance of the words, the sashimi are the simple raw fish slices and the sushi are the rolls of rice and raw fish.

1983 May 31, Robert Nadeau, “Restaurant: Gyuhama of Japan: Suit yourself with sushi”, in Richard M. Gaines, editor, The Boston Phoenix, volume XII, number 22, Boston, Mass.: Boston Phoenix Inc., →ISSN, →OCLC, section 2, page 10, column 3:

The remarkable news is that all the sashimi were quite fresh — hard to achieve in a small restaurant.

1983 December 27, Robert Nadeau, “Restaurant: Edo Restaurant: Not Zen but simple”, in Richard M. Gaines, editor, The Boston Phoenix, volume XII, number 52, Boston, Mass.: Boston Phoenix Inc., →ISSN, →OCLC, section 2, page 10, column 4:

It is customary to serve sashimi in odd numbers, which are considered lucky, and servings of five sashimi are common. Thus, the small flat dish in which the soy sauce comes is large enough, but not too large, for one sashimi at a time.

2009, Lucien Ellington, “Food as Art”, in Japan (Asia in Focus), Santa Barbara, Calif.: ABC-CLIO, →ISBN, chapter 6 (Culture), “Food” section, page 294:

“Maybe I will have one of these sashimi,” I said, reaching for a slimy pink glob.

2012, Laura Levine, chapter 13, in Death of a Neighborhood Witch (A Jaine Austen Mystery; 11), New York, N.Y.: Kensington Books, →ISBN, page 119:

Nudge the photo over (using keyboard arrow keys if you like) so that the sashimi are well situated in the frame.

sashimi

Unadapted borrowing from English sashimi.

ubor

sushi

en-noun

sushi (usually uncountable, plural sushis or sushi)

Borrowed from Japanese 寿司(すし) (sushi, “sushi (sour rice)”), ultimately from archaic conjugation 酸(す)し (sushi, “sour, vinegared”) of modern adjective 酸(す)い (sui, “sour, vinegared”).

For the vegetarians, she served cucumber sushi.

Not long ago a newspaper reporter came to interview me on the subject of unusual foods, and I described to him the persimmon-leaf sushi made by the people who live deep in the mountains of Yoshino—and which I shall take the opportunity to introduce to you here.

1977 [1933], 谷崎潤一郎 [Jun'ichirō Tanizaki], translated by Thomas J. Harper and Edward G. Seidensticker, In Praise of Shadows, Sedgwick, ME: Leete's Island Books, translation of 陰翳礼讃 [In'ei Raisan] (in Japanese), →ISBN, page 40:

I lived in New York all my life. We used to have Chinese restaurants, ltalian restaurants. Now you have these sushi restaurants. Everyone goes for sushi. Sushi—I hate the stuff. Although, I tell you, I had some the other day. I took it home, I cooked it, it wasn't bad. It tasted like fish.

1985, Leora Barish, Desperately Seeking Susan, spoken by Taxi Driver:

To appreciate sushi, you have to forget the tastes and textures that come with Western cuisine. At first glance (or should I say taste?), a sushi of flounder will not be that different from a sushi of sea bream. But, for the Japanese, these two sushi are as different as roast beef and roast pork are for a Westerner.

2004, Chihiro Mazui, Kazuko Masui, “Introduction”, in Sushi Secrets, London: Hachette Illustrated, →ISBN, page 12:

A Japanese dish made of small portions of sticky white rice flavored with vinegar, usually wrapped in seaweed and filled or topped with fish, vegetables or meat.

寿司

Daijirin Daijisen Shōgakukan Sushi Tōkyō ja:寿司 ja:松村明

From 酸し (sushi, “sour”), the archaic し (shi) terminal-form conjugation of modern 酸い (sui, “sour”).
Originally, sushi was a form of fish that had been salted and fermented for preservation without refrigeration. The fish was sometimes packed with rice or rice mixed with vinegar in order to speed the fermentation process. In the Edo period, this was also known as hayazushi (早鮨, 早鮓) when packed in layers, pressed, and fermented for just one night. Something similar is still prepared today as narezushi (馴鮨, 熟鮨) that relies on fermentation with no added vinegar.
The kanji are an example of ateji (当て字).

sushi: vinegared rice served with fish or vegetables, etc.

押し寿司

soft-pressed sushi topped with ingredients


fugu

Borrowed from Japanese 河豚(ふぐ) (fugu, “blowfish”).

Twenty minutes later, the chef has successfully prepared a whole fugu—or puffer fish—a Japanese delicacy whose capacity to maim and kill is dividing the country’s culinary world.

2016 August 5, Justin McCurry, “Last supper? Japan's diners divided over killer puffer fish”, in The Guardian, →ISSN:

A sluggish swimmer, fugu has stunted fins and often flat-lying spikes instead of scales, and when confronted by predators it compensates for its lack of speed by swallowing enough water to swell up until its spikes stand on end, so it looks like an angry armored balloon.

2020 December 4, Ligaya Mishan, “The Appealing and Potentially Lethal Delicacy That Is Fugu”, in The New York Times Style Magazine:

Blowfish: a delicacy popular in Japan served raw as sushi that may, if improperly prepared, contain deadly levels of neurotoxins.


fugu

fugu (delicacy popular in Japan served raw as sushi that may, if improperly prepared, contain deadly levels of neurotoxins)


kimchi

en-noun

kimchi (usually uncountable, plural kimchis)

Borrowed from Korean 김치 (gimchi), ultimately composed within Korea of Chinese-derived morphemes 沉 (MC drim, “submerged, soaked”) and 菜 (MC tshojH, “vegetable”), i.e. "fermented vegetable". Doublet of kimuchi.

Despite the stew’s debt to kimchi, you know it has come into its own when it’s served with kimchi as a side dish.

2023 June 29, Violet Kim, “Korean food: 39 dishes we can’t live without”, in CNN:

A Korean dish made of vegetables, such as cabbage or radishes, that are salted, seasoned, and stored in sealed containers to undergo lactic acid fermentation.


nigiri

Borrowed from Japanese 握り (nigiri, “grasping, gripping”, short for 握り寿司 nigirizushi, literally “gripped sushi” from the way the sushi rice is molded in the hand).

bor+

김치

desc

→ English: kimchi, kimchee, kim chee, gimchee, gimchi

→ Chinese: 辛奇 (xīnqí)

→ Japanese: キムチ (kimuchi)

→ English: kimuchi

→ Japanese: きみすい (kimisui)

Nativisation of the Sino-Korean term 침채 (沈菜, chimchae, “soaked vegetables”). First attested in the Hunmong jahoe (訓蒙字會 / 훈몽자회), 1527, as Middle Korean 딤ᄎᆡ (Yale: timchoy).
In most dialects, Middle Korean 딤ᄎᆡ (Yale: timchoy) was regularly palatalized to 짐츼 (jimchui), whence modern southern dialectal 짐치 (jimchi). However, southern Korean dialects also palatalized /ki/ to /t͡ɕi/, which the Seoul prestige dialect did not. Seoul speakers hence hypercorrected 짐츼 (jimchui) to 김츼 (gimchui) to avoid sounding "southern", whence modern Standard 김치 (gimchi).
This word displaced the older Middle Korean term 디히〮 (Yale: tìhí) (whence 지 (ji), now only used in compound words and the southern Gyeongsang and southwestern Jeolla dialects), probably because regular sound change rendered it monosyllabic and caused it to have a large number of homophones.

한민족은 수천년 간 김치 힘으로 살아 왔다.

суши

Borrowed through English sushi from Japanese 寿司 (sushi, “sushi (sour rice)”), ultimately from archaic conjugation 酸し (sushi, “sour, vinegared”) of modern adjective 酸い (sui, “sour, vinegared”).
The sense of "kimbap" was due to a mistake that wrongly assumes that Korean kimbap looks like sushi.
