Ingredients

  • 4 ounces sashimi-grade yellowtail belly of the fish if possible

For Serving (Optional)

Instructions

  • Slice the Fish: Cut the raw yellowtail fish against the grain. You can cut it straight down or at an angle. You can adjust the angle to get the proper length and thickness.
  • Arrange Yellowtail Sashimi: On a cold plate, add the optional shredded daikon.
  • Layout yellowtail sashimi slices, together with optional wasabi, pickled ginger, and other ingredients.
  • Serve with soy sauce and enjoy!

Notes

  • It’s best to eat yellowtail sashimi the same day, as the raw fish won’t taste as fresh the next day.
  • To make nobu-style sashimi: Slice the fish into paper-thin pieces, and place on a plate.
  • Place sliced jalapeno on top of each piece. Then in a saucepan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, ½ teaspoon minced garlic, ½ teaspoon minced ginger. Bring to a boil and pour the sauce over the sashimi.
