Fish

Method

Preparation of Hirame

  1. 1

    Clean the Hirame

    Rinse the Hirame under cold running water to remove any impurities. Pat dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Fillet the Fish

    Using a sharp filleting knife, carefully remove the skin and bones from the Hirame, creating thin fillets. Aim for a thickness of about 1/4 inch.

  3. 3

    Slice the Fillets

    Cut the fillets into thin sashimi slices, approximately 1/2 inch wide. Arrange them on a serving plate.

Seasoning and Garnishing

  1. 4

    Season the Hirame

    Evenly sprinkle the sea salt over the Hirame slices. Drizzle fresh lemon juice and soy sauce over the fillets, allowing them to marinate for about 5 minutes.

  2. 5

    Add Wasabi (optional)

    If using, place a small dollop of wasabi on the side of each slice for an added kick.

  3. 6

    Garnish the Plate

    Finish by garnishing the plate with microgreens or edible flowers for a vibrant presentation.
