SASHMI
Sashimi is the one of popular
foods in Japan and is cooked by very simple method. It is sliced
raw fish,cut in Saappropriate sizes, which are dipped in soy
sauce with grated Japanese horse radish(wasabi) and eaten.
I guess you may hesitate to eat
sashimi if you have a chance to eat it. I recommend you to try it
but carefuly check the freshness of them.Materials used for
sashimi are always chosen with special attention ,for it is most
important that they should be fresh. It determines the
proficiency of the cook's skill how to select and prepare high
quality ingredients .Generaly Japanese cuisine are so simple that
make use of the quality of the material most effectively.
Japanese people likely eat maguro
(tuna).hamachi(yellow tale),katsuo(bonito),ika(squid)as sashimi.
If you can get fresh fish avove mentioned ,please try eat them as
sashimi. When you try sashimi,please don't forget soy sauce.Although
Japanese horse radish has substitute such as horse radish and
ginger ,but soy sauce is essential for sashimi.
If you put a piece of sashimi on a rice block (seasoned by vinegar and sugar),you can easily make a sushi .The following is sushi of Tuna(MAGURO SUSHI in Japanese).As you know ,sushi is healthy food and Tuna is also good for health because which highly containes omega 3 fatty acids such as EPA and DHA good for our cardiovascular system and brain.
