There are two main types of sushi, nigiri-zushi and maki-zushi. Nigiri-zushi is vinegared rice hand-formed into oval shapes; its usually topped with various raw and cooked seafood. Maki-zushi on the other hand is vinegared rice combined with seafood and vegetables then wrapped in an edible seaweed called nori and sliced into rounds. Nigiri-zushi is tricky to prepare so most people eat it at Japanese restaurants and sushi bars. Maki-zushi is much easier to prepare but requires a sushi mat for rolling.
