How to make it

6 steps. Take it one step at a time.

  1. Place the fish in the freezer

    Place the fish in the freezer for 10-15 minutes before slicing to firm it up, making it easier to cut clean slices.

    15 min
  2. Shred the daikon radish

    Shred the daikon radish into very fine long strips and soak in ice water for 5 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

    5 min
  3. Slice the salmon and tuna across the grain

    Using a very sharp knife, slice the salmon and tuna across the grain into 0.5 cm (1/4 inch) thick slices. Aim for a single, smooth pulling motion with the knife.

  4. Arrange a mound of shredded daikon

    On a chilled plate, arrange a mound of shredded daikon and place two shiso leaves on top or behind it.

  5. Fan the fish slices elegantly

    Fan the fish slices elegantly over the daikon and shiso. Place a small dollop of wasabi and a mound of pickled ginger on the side.

  6. Pour the soy sauce

    Pour the soy sauce into small individual dipping bowls and serve immediately.

A little kitchen wisdom

Always ensure you are purchasing 'sashimi-grade' or 'sushi-grade' fish to ensure it is safe for raw consumption. Keep the fish as cold as possible until the moment of serving.

Keep the good going

For now. And for later.

Make it ahead

Fish must be sliced fresh; do not slice more than 2 hours in advance. Keep tightly wrapped and refrigerated.

Store & enjoy

Leftovers must be consumed same day. If quality degrades, cook the fish thoroughly before consuming. Not recommended to reheat; eat cold or sear quickly if no longer fresh enough for raw consumption.

Allergens

Contains fish, soy.
