When people hear about the term sushi robot, they often have a quizzical look upon their faces. Sushi Robot?
“Doesn’t that beat the whole purpose of sushi?” This was the response that a long standing sushi chef and friend of mine in Tokyo gave me when posed with the probability of a Sushi Robot.
It has long been thought that Sushi is a delicacy enjoyed as a premium experience. One that requires a painstakingly long time to prepare, create and plate. Whether it be preparing ingredients several hours beforehand, the interaction with the customer, the experience of watching it being put together or even just presentation. The human element in Sushi is integral to it. One might even say, Sushi is not sushi unless it contains the emotions and aesthetics of a chef put into it.
And that point is true. Yet there are parts to the sushi experience that can be improved upon, to not just make sushi making simpler, but to also allow for chefs to create delicious sushi at lower labor cost and thereby being able to offer much lower prices for their products. Thus, allowing more people to enjoy this delicious dish.
In this article, we will be taking a look at how having a sushi robot can benefit both the business and the art of sushi making, all the while, making itself a much easier and more accessible product for the public.

What is a Sushi Robot?
A Sushi Robot is a device that assists in the production of Sushi. It should be noted here that a Sushi Robot merely assists. It does not replace the human element of the chef. In fact, it compliments it by reducing stress and workload upon the chef, allowing them to be more creative and flexible with their work. In a way, a sushi robot assists and merely helps with the repetitive tasks of preparing the rice and sushi rolls so that the chef may then focus on the other ingredients and preparation and presentation.
A sushi robot allows a chef to have the freedom necessary to fine tune his craft, improve his skills and interact more with his clientele. All the while, the sushi robot takes over the repetitive and time taking tasks of preparing the rice and processing it into nigiri or maki sushi.
Rise in Popularity
In recent years, the sushi robot has seen a significant rise in popularity, mostly stemming from the fact that sushi is now, more than ever a global cuisine. As with most popular cuisines with high demand, it becomes difficult to keep up with the customer’s requirements. Especially in businesses that are booming. As such it becomes necessary to find alternative ways to be able to keep up with the ever increasing demand for sushi. This is where the sushi robot comes into play. Where a sushi chef could prepare about two to four sushi every two minutes, a sushi robot can produce up to 4000 sushi an hour. This number is so high that it was able to beat the Guinness world record holder for the fastest number of sushi made in a minute.
Allowing for Creativity
A sushi robot also allows for more creativity in the kitchen. Every culinary cuisine requires a certain ability to develop and evolve with time. Cuisines that don’t evolve are usually cuisines that become either niche or forgotten. Sushi is a crowd favorite but as time progresses, so do the taste profiles and palates of the people. Their love for the cuisine stays the same but they do wish to experience their favorite foods in a different way. A sushi robot allows for both the time and flexibility for the chefs to focus on preparing new and different varieties of sushi so that they can improve upon their existing recipes while also coming with new, innovative and delicious sushi recipes. In a way, share this amazing dish with more people and allowing more people to fall in love with sushi. What a win-win situation! Sushi robot is so much more than another machine inside a kitchen. It allows for creativity, provides affordable options for people and allows more people to enjoy sushi.
