I have cravings for chips or similar crunchy and tasty food, even when I'm not hungry. What are some alternatives?
Maybe your body is craving something that is in those foods. So could be you have some deficiency right now and your body is trying to tell you how to fix it. Problem with those processed foods is that they taste like the stuff your body needs but they are definitely not what you need.So if you crave all these savoury/salty snacks, maybe you lack some salts or minerals in your diet. How do you usually cook? Are you one of those people who avoid salt at all costs? Because in that case you need to know that salt is not bad for you. You actually need some salt. Everything you have too much of is bad - even water. So be mindful of that.Maybe see a nutritionist and get your diet analysed.
What is the pink crunchy topping on sushi rolls?
Do you mean the small shavings of pickled ginger? Pickled ginger is generally served on the side with sushi, right alongside its best friend wasabi, and it traditionally used by the Japanese as a palate cleanser between courses. It is spicy, sour and quite crunchy. But delicious. If you mean the tiny little round shiny circles, that's caviar. Fish eggs. It adds a bit of salt to the sushi roll as well as makes it look really cool. I've seen wasabi caviar that's neon green, and other colours of caviar such as hot pink or bright orange. It's quite impressive looking, as is the pickled ginger, especially when it's pinched into the shape of a small flower.
