which sushi style involves hand-pressed seasoned rice topped with fresh fish?

The sushi style that involves hand-pressed seasoned rice topped with fresh fish is called "Nigiri." Nigiri sushi consists of an oval-shaped mound of vinegared rice shaped by hand, with a slice of fresh fish or seafood gently pressed on top. This traditional Japanese sushi highlights the balance between the seasoned rice and the quality of the fish, often with a small amount of wasabi placed between the fish and rice. Nigiri is distinct from rolled sushi and is usually eaten in one bite, often accompanied by soy sauce and pickled ginger on the side.
