Begin by ensuring your workspace and utensils are perfectly clean, as sushi-grade fish requires careful handling. Wash your hands thoroughly.
Using a sharp knife, slice the salmon belly into thin, even pieces, about 0.5 cm thick, taking care to cut against the grain for the smoothest texture.
Arrange the salmon slices neatly on a chilled serving platter, overlapping them slightly for an elegant presentation.
In a small bowl, create a dipping sauce by mixing the soy sauce and lemon juice. Pour the sauce into a small serving dish and place it besides the sashimi platter.
Serve the salmon sashimi with a small dollop of wasabi paste on the side, allowing guests to customize their heat preference.
Accompany the sashimi with pickled ginger, either placed directly on the platter or offered separately as a palate cleanser.
Add the seaweed salad as a refreshing side, garnishing it with a sprinkle of sesame seeds for extra flavor and texture.
Finish the presentation by sprinkling the sliced green onions over the sashimi for a hint of freshness.
Serve immediately to ensure the fish's texture and flavor are at their best.
