About this video

In this Tribal People Try video the tribe meet sushi for the first time. Most of them had never seen it before the camera started, so the first minute is questions — what is it, what's in it, how do you eat it — and then the plates go round.

What is sushi?

Sushi is Japanese: vinegared rice with raw fish, vegetables or egg, rolled in seaweed or pressed by hand. Raw fish is the headline, but rice, seaweed, wasabi and soy are each their own surprise.

What to watch for

Raw fish is the wall. Some try it, most stop at the first piece, and the cold, soft texture is the part they mention. Seaweed's ocean taste is new too. Cooked rolls with chicken or egg go down much better.

The comparison they always make

Fish in Punjab is fried in masala or cooked in curry, always well done. Cold rice is not eaten either, so sushi breaks two rules at once.
