Q: I purchased some sushi and it is more than I can
eat. Can I freeze the remainder or must I discard? How long does it keep its
freshness? - Tom H.
Generally speaking, sushi does not freeze well. Cooked
rice and nori (seaweed) both may become quite unappetizing when thawed. Not
unsafe, but not appealing (so that choice is yours). Sushi will keep in the
fridge for a little while, but overnight I would discard, personally.
Remember that the fish is raw and any contamination that may be at low (and
safe) levels when purchased, may get to unsafe levels over time. I will
usually refrigerate my leftovers for up to 10 hours, but I discard after
that just to be safe. You definitely don't want to get sick from seafood
that is too old.
