Sunomono (Vinegared dishes) serve as refreshing palette cleansers. Even though the volume is small, make sure to stretch it out to 2 or 3 bites and really enjoy it, instead of eating it all at once. As the vinegared dishes are usually served before or after the fried course, the order may be reversed. It is usually served in a small bowl, so you can pick it up to eat it. It may also be called “Suzakana”.
