Is this jellyfish? I got a mixed sushi platter and this came with it

1. Maybe? Is there a smell? Jellyfish usually has no smell to it. Could be Squid too.

2. Or Geoduck.

3. Yeah, most likely. Howd like it? You eat it for texture.

4. It could be a lot of things. It looks a little too meaty to be jellyfish but it’s hard to tell from the photo.

5. > it tastes like crunchy water

   That’s the best explanation of something I’ve read in a long time

6. I think someone sneezed

7. That’s common preserved jellyfish served in Chinese restaurants. Obviously not raw like a real sushi restaurant.

8. I absolutely love jellyfish salad – it’s the perfect summer salad – light, crunchy, slightly sweet, slightly tart, just perfect for a hot summer’s night.

9. If it was crunchy, definitely jellyfish

10. That’s 100% kurage/jellyfish. Highly dependent onthe seasoning to really make it shine, but textural component is a big part.

11. Yup, this is jelly fish. Though I see this a lot more often in Cantonese cuisine then Japanese.
