Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Fresh eel fillets
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Wasabi paste
- 1 inch, peeled and thinly sliced Fresh ginger root
- 2 stalks, finely chopped Green onions
- 1 sheet, finely shredded Nori sheets
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar

Instructions
Start by preparing the eel fillets: ensure they are thoroughly cleaned and free of any bones. Pat the fillets dry with a paper towel.
Using a sharp knife, slice the eel fillets into thin slices approximately 1/4 inch thick at a 45-degree angle. Make sure each slice is uniform for consistent texture and flavor.
Arrange the sliced eel on a large plate, fanning out the pieces slightly for an appealing presentation.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce and wasabi paste until well combined. Adjust the wasabi to your preferred level of spiciness.
Sprinkle the finely sliced ginger root over the eel sashimi to add a hint of fresh spice.
Garnish the sashimi with the finely chopped green onions and a scattering of finely shredded nori for added flavor and nutrition.
Drizzle a bit of rice vinegar over the eel slices to enhance the flavor and add a subtle tang.
Serve the eel sashimi immediately with lemon wedges on the side, allowing diners to squeeze fresh lemon juice over the sashimi as desired for a burst of citrus freshness.
Enjoy your high protein eel sashimi with the soy-wasabi dipping sauce as a perfect balance of flavor and protein.
