Ingredients:
- 1 lb (500g) fresh fish fillet. the preferred fish for hawaiian sashimi are yellow fin, albacore or big eye tuna.
- about 1/4 cup (80ml) light soy sauce , i use kikkoman but any good quality sauce will do.
- dry mustard , adjust this to taste and keep in mind that colman''s is a hot mustard. the sauce should have a bite but don''tsp drown the sashimi in it, just dip 1 edge or corner of each piece.
- enough thinly sliced napa cabbage or grated daikon radish to cover the plate. regular cabbage will do but napa is milder.
- 1 pair of chopsticks per person.
Directions:
- The dipping sauce:
- 1. Make the dipping sauce first so it has time to set in the fridge and blend.
- 2. Put the Colman’s in a small bowl and add a few drops of water.
- 3. Using a spoon work the Colman’s into a smooth past, adding a few drops of water at a time. You want a nice, smooth, slightly runny past or you’ll get a lumpy dipping sauce when you add the soy sauce; a big no, no.
- 4. When you have the Colman’s worked into a past add the soy sauce a little at a time, mixing well. Test this before you’ve added all the soy sauce and stop adding soy sauce when you like the taste. Put in the fridge while you do the fish.
- The plate/platter: See Photo
- 1. Thinly slice enough Napa cabbage (like coleslaw) to completely cover a large plate or small platter about half an inch (13mm) thick and arrange it on the plate/platter; or use the gradated Daikon radish See Photo. In Hawaii they usually use the cabbage.
- The fish:
- 1. Even if you got good fillets there may be layers in it See Photo. Separate the layers so you have a solid, un-marred hunk of fish. Make sure this is VERY cold and it will be easier to work with.
- 2. Slice the sashimi. You want your pieces of sashimi to be about 2” X 2” (50 X 50mm) to 3” X 3” (75 X 75mm) inches wide by long and about 1/16” (6mm) thick; in the US think the thickness of a dime. They can be thicker but thin is better.
- 3. Layer the pieces, stair step fashion, on the prepared plate of cabbage, see picture.
- 4. Arm yourself with your chopsticks and chow down.
- I often serve this with Soba or Udon (Japanese soft noodles) in a cold, spiced, mild fish or chicken stock as a snack. Warm sake is very nice but a cold, Pilsner type beer is good. Douzo omeshiagari kudasai. (enjoy your food).
