He was the leading expert on the techniques of making Edomae-zushi, the most popular type of sushi today, and was chairman of the committee which judged sushi-making contests.

Jean-Pierre Rampal was born in Marseillle, France, where he studied flute with his father. He was the first flutist to achieve world-wide popularity and has restored the flute to the position it enjoyed during the 18th century. Among the many countries he has visited, Japan holds a special fascination, and he deeply admires all aspects of Japanese culture, particularly its food and especially sushi.
