For starters you may have come across two different types of sushi known as sushi and sashimi. The truth is sashimi is just the meat of the fish served without any other ingredients. In all sense of the word it is just a slab of meat. However, sushi is a type that uses other ingredients such as vegetables and is typically wrapped in a roll of seaweed and rice.

Let's not forget about Nigiri. Nigiri is very similar to sashimi except it is served on a molded piece of rice. You also need to keep in mind that sashimi itself is considered raw fish, but it can be comprised of other types of underwater sea creature such as eel or octopus.
