Previously, the name “sushi” in Japan was written with the help of one hieroglyph- , which meant fish. Today, the same hieroglyph stands for longevity. Almost all chefs rolls – men. And most restaurants in Japan refuse to employ women cooks at all. They motivate their decision by the fact that women have a higher body temperature, and therefore they are not capable of preparing such a delicate dish. The Japanese claim that a difference of two to four degrees affects the taste of the final delicacy.
