1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon wasabi paste
1 tablespoon pickled ginger
1 tablespoon freshly grated daikon radish
1 shiso leaf (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1 Ensure your fish is fresh and of sashimi-grade quality.
  2. 2 Using a sharp knife, slice the tuna and salmon into thin, even pieces, about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. 3 Arrange the fish slices neatly on a chilled plate.
  4. 4 Place a small mound of freshly grated daikon radish on the side of the plate.
  5. 5 Add a small portion of pickled ginger and a dollop of wasabi paste beside the fish.

Tips

Always use the freshest fish possible and keep it chilled until serving. A sharp knife is essential for clean, precise cuts.
