What is nigiri oil?

Nigiri oil is a flavored oil often used in Japanese cuisine, particularly in sushi preparation. It typically consists of a blend of oils infused with various seasonings, such as soy sauce, sesame oil, or aromatic ingredients like garlic or herbs. This oil is drizzled over nigiri sushi, enhancing the flavor and adding a glossy finish to the dish. It can also be used to elevate other dishes or as a dipping sauce.
