The most valued sushi ingredient is toro, the fatty cut of the fish. 

This comes in a variety of otoro (often from the bluefin species of tuna) 
and chutoro, meaning "middle toro", implying that it is halfway into the fattiness between toro and the regular cut. 

Aburi style refers to nigiri sushi where the fish is partially grilled (topside) and partially raw. 

Most nigiri sushi will have completely raw neta.
