  • 1/2 lb sashimi grade tuna or any other fresh fish you like
  • 1 Tablespoon wasabi you can get this ready made in a tube or make your own with wasabi powder
  • 1/2 lb shredded daikon radish
  • 1 container pickled ginger
  • soy sauce
  • roe Optional

Instructions

  • Using a very sharp knife, cut the pieces of fish against the grain to about 1/4 slices or less.
  • Arrange the fish on a Japanese tray along with a bunch of daikon radish, some wasabi and ginger slices. It is customary to serve with a little dish for the soy sauce and your guest will mix the wasabi with the soy sauce to the desired amount of heat. The ginger is used to cleanse the palate between different bites.
