Method

Preparation of Kanpachi

  1. 1

    Slice the Fish

    Using a sharp knife, slice the Kanpachi fillet into thin sashimi pieces, about 1/4 inch thick. Arrange them beautifully on a serving plate.

  2. 2

    Season the Fish

    Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the sliced Kanpachi to enhance its flavor. Let it rest for about 10 minutes.

Preparation of Vegetables

  1. 3

    Prepare Kohlrabi

    Peel the kohlrabi and cut it into thin matchsticks or julienne. This will add a crunchy texture to the dish.

  2. 4

    Prepare Green Apple

    Core and slice the green apple into thin matchsticks, similar in size to the kohlrabi.

Making the Dressing

  1. 5

    Combine Dressing Ingredients

    In a small bowl, combine the buttermilk, lemon juice, salt, and freshly chopped dill. Mix well until smooth.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Plate the Sashimi

    On the plate with the sliced Kanpachi, scatter the prepared kohlrabi and green apple matchsticks around the fish.

  2. 7

    Drizzle the Dressing

    Generously drizzle the buttermilk dressing over the sashimi and vegetables. Ensure everything is lightly coated.
