Answer 1

The very best sushi has a center of raw fish, such as tuna, salmon and such.  The veggie sushi is for the whimps.

Answer 2

The base of all Sushi is Rice.  A special short grained sticky rice that is seasoned with rice vinegar.  The rice then carries a wide variety of other foods in bite sized portions.  the rice can be formed into Nuggets with fish on top (Nigiri Sushi), rolled in a sheet of dried seaweed with fish or veggies (Maki Sushi) or have dried seaweed rolled around a base and filled with various foods, usually fish roe.

All excellent.  Try it.
