    Meh…

    I mean most sweet and sour sauces are primarily a fruit, sugar, vinegar and a thickener… which pretty similar to ketchup. And those are considered okay to put on sushi.

        I would honestly put ketchup in sushi before I put sweet and sour sauce in there. And I wouldn’t.

          For a lot of sushi, the chefs will be disappointed in you even for putting soy sauce on it. They craft it to have a specific combination of flavors, and strong sauces just obliterate them.

            Yeah. If it’s served with soy sauce you use it, if not you assume it’s not needed.

            Honestly there are certain sushis I will never put soy sauce on.

            Yeah, the complex and mercurial task of combining fish and carbs. The masters of the palate.

            They studied 10k hours to learn how to pick the raw fish with just the right amount of parasites, for flavor and crunch!

        A regular tare sauce has sugar in it, and you can find the sweeter version (amadare) at sushi places. However, it’s really only used for the eel (anago).

        But I mean they make a ketchup spaghetti in Japan so if someone wants to talk about fucking with traditional dishes…

      No, they aren’t? Where?

      I mean, obviously you put whatever you want on yours no matter how much of a blatant crime against the universe it is, but “traditionally” that’s not a thing. Takeaway shops do love their chili mayo though.
