We here at Top Sushi Maker caters to clients globally on a daily basis. These are clients from a wide variety of fields and each individual client has their own circumstances, requirements, and expectations. We do our best to answer the questions we receive to the best of our abilities and a question we get asked quite often is, “Are there any downsides to owning a sushi machine?” or “Does the quality of my sushi drop because I’m using a sushi machine and not a trained sushi chef?”

These are legitimate concerns and today, we will try to help alleviate these concerns and take a step by step approach to addressing this issue.

Sushi Machines’ Concerns

As mentioned above, some clients and customers do have questions regarding the quality and efficiency of sushi machines.

To address these concerns, we will first begin with efficiency.

A traditional sushi making business usually involves a chef or chefs working together to create sushi in various stages. Prior to this, these same chefs train for years upon years with immense dedication, hard work, and perseverance. Once these chefs are trained, they then choose to start their own ventures or join restaurants or food chains specializing in Sushi.

However, upon joining these restaurants, they find that they often have to work alongside sushi robots.

You heard that right. A huge portion of sushi restaurants worldwide, even the premier institutions employ the use of both sushi machines and sushi chefs. Why is this so?

This is because the sushi machine helps add a sense of precision and fluidity to the production process.
Since the advent of the industrial age, man and machine have worked together to achieve greatness.
Sushi is no exception. Where man fails, machine assists. And this is the case even behind sushi making.

There is of course expertise in the hands of an experienced sushi chef that cannot just be programmed into a machine. However, there are also parts of the production process that does not require a hands-on approach from the sushi chef.

We like to look upon it as a form of partnership, man and machine, sushi chef and sushi machine.
To illustrate this concept, let us take the example of how sushi rolls are made with the assistance of a sushi machine.

The Sushi Machine is first filled with rice. This rice is then filtered, separated, measured, divided and then rolled onto individual sheets of customizable thickness. These sheets then roll onto a conveyor belt where a sushi chef neatly arranges the various fillings, condiments, and flavors. The machine then takes the assembled sushi and wraps it around into a perfectly shaped, uniform sushi roll. A perfect sushi machine for this type of sushi making process would the ASM880A Sushi Roll Machine. To find out more check out this product listing page for more details!

In this case, both the man and the sushi machine take part in the production process. Neither trying to replace the other, both working side by side complementing each others’ strengths.

We like to look upon this process as a partnership between man and sushi machine to create something truly delicious.

Speaking of delicious, what about the taste?

Let’s talk about that.

The Taste and Flavor

When it comes to Sushi Machines, there is a general idea that because it is not made entirely by human hands, that there might be some sort of discrepancy when it comes to flavor or taste or even texture. This is a completely misguided and wrong concept.
In fact, having the reliability of a sushi machine working side by side with a sushi chef offers more benefits.

Having a sushi machine allows for unparalleled precision and reliability in terms of texture, weight, size, and consistency. With a touch of a button, a sushi machine lets the chef specify and choose the kind of thickness and the type of consistency they wish their sushi to have depending on the taste of the customer. Not only that, it can do the same every single time so the customer can always come back and know that the delicious flavor will always be there. Such consistency and reliability are rare and often only achievable through machines.

And this is not even mentioning the focus on hygiene and cleanliness that a sushi machine offers. Sushi has very strict government guidelines when it comes to hygiene given the risks associated with raw food. A sushi machine allows for a greater sense of reliability and security as there is very little chance for contamination or issue given the design of the product.

It ticks all the boxes and rings all the bells and it does so brilliantly!
