Inari sushi features perfectly seasoned sushi rice nestled within a sweet and savory fried tofu pouch (aburaage), offering a delightful balance of textures and flavors. This popular Japanese delicacy is a convenient and satisfying vegetarian option, perfect for bento boxes or a quick snack.
Storage Time
Inari sushi is best enjoyed fresh on the day of preparation for optimal taste and texture. When stored properly in the refrigerator, it can safely last for 1 to 2 days. Freezing is generally not recommended due to significant quality degradation.
Temperature
Keep refrigerated at 0–4°C (32–39°F) immediately after preparation.
Signs of Spoilage
- A distinct sour, yeasty, or unpleasant off-smell, deviating from its usual mild, sweet, and savory aroma.
- The sushi rice becoming hard, dry, excessively sticky, slimy, or exhibiting visible discoloration such as pink, green, or black mold spots.
- The fried tofu pouch appearing overly dry, brittle, or developing any fuzzy mold growth on its surface.
