What kind of fish do I use for sushi?

[LordJezo]

Will any kind do or is there a special grade I need to get?

Depends on the sushi, but otherwise, go fresh fresh fresh

Check the spacing for the "rings" in the meet, the more spread apart they are, the older the fish

So go for close close close

 

[jthsmak]

yellowtail and salmon are my favorites

Viper,

That's the only kind of "sushi" you'd ever see me eating.

LordJezo,

Albacore is one of the more popular choices.

make sure they are dead first though

 

[Mookow]

Try some carp.

Fresh, or freshly defrozen in the case of many fish such as Tuna or YellowTail

See if you can find this at your local grocer.

Tuna, yellowtail, swordfish, salmon are my favorites. If I could afford it, I'd live on those things(and die, as some of you would like to point out) .

Yes, there is "sushi grade" meat. One of the small grocers here had some that cost about 4x as much as the fresh tuna in the regular seafood case. Of course, this is Wisconsin where we don't exactly have a lot of oceanfront property.
