New Style Sashimi
From Nobu’s cookbook
Yield: 4 – 5 people
Ingredients:
- 8 – 12 oz. Sashimi (Atlantic Salmon, Red Snapper or your favorite fish for sushi)
- 2 Tablespoons Minced Garlic
- Julienne fresh Ginger
- Julienne Scallion
- 12 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 4 Tablespoons Sesame Oil
- 4 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
- 4 Tablespoons Yuzu Juice
- 2 Tablespoons White Sesame Seed
Cut the fish fillet into paper-thin slices. Fan out the slices in a circle over 4 dinner plates. Scatter some of the minced garlic and some of the ginger and scallion julienne over the fish; sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Sprinkle on the soy sauce and yuzu juice.
Combine the olive oil and sesame oil in a nonreactive small saucepan. Set over moderately high heat and bring almost to a boil (about 200°); the surface will shimmer. Remove from the heat and immediately pour one-fourth of the sauce over each serving of fish. The hot oil will sear the fish as you pour it on. Serve at once.
