Steps

1

Prepare the Fish

Ensure your fish fillets are very cold. Using a very sharp, long-bladed knife, slice the tuna, salmon, and yellowtail into uniform pieces, about 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) thick. Always make cuts in a single, decisive motion, either perpendicular or slightly diagonal to the grain of the fish.

2

Garnish and Serve

Thinly slice or grate the daikon radish. Prepare the shiso leaves, pickled ginger, and wasabi paste. Artfully arrange the fish slices, daikon radish, and shiso leaves on a beautiful serving platter. Place the wasabi and pickled ginger alongside. Serve immediately with soy sauce.

Extra Tips

Always choose the freshest, sushi-grade fish from a reputable source; this is the foundation of great sashimi.

Slice the fish with a very sharp knife in a single, smooth motion to achieve clean, beautiful cuts.

Be creative with your presentation; arrange the fish and garnishes aesthetically on a beautiful platter.
