- The rectangular Japanese plates can be found in different sizes. Be sure to check how large they are especially if you are looking for Sushi plates, sashimi plates or yakitori plates. They are normally used for eating sashimi (raw fish) or sushi (raw fish on top of rice). Of course, they are also used for other types of cooking, like yakitori (Japanese kebab, tonkatsu (deep-fried pork), the delicious Japanese beef and more. The longest ones are usually plates for grilled fish.
