TORO

Sometimes it is great!
Sometimes it is terrible!?
WTF?
Are there different grades?
Seasons?
Some places have it, other don't....
What does it all mean?

the secret is to add just the right amount of wasabe

The secret is to not add any sushi at all. Tastes much better that way.

Toro is AKA "fatty tuna" and there are different grades based on the fat content. There is also a kind of season in that good Toro comes from cold deep water (caught during winter months or none El Nino years) this establishes the fat content, the warmer the water the less fat. Also as with all Sushi the fresher the catch, the better the Sushi. Hope this helps.

Remember folks that with the amount of crap in the sea / farmer fish escapes etc, families of worms are quite commonplace in fish, which can be fatal to humans if consumed.
Deep-Freezing fish kills worm eggs. Make sure that the Sashimi/Sushi you're eating has been deep-frozen in transit.
