Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece (about 200 grams) Fresh eel fillet
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Wasabi paste
- 2 tablespoons Pickled ginger
- 0.5 piece Cucumber
- 1 sheet Seaweed (nori) sheets
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Begin by thoroughly rinsing the fresh eel fillet under cold water. Pat dry with a paper towel.
Using a sharp sushi knife, slice the eel fillet into thin strips, approximately 1/4 inch thick, for sashimi. Set aside on a clean plate.
Peel and thinly slice the cucumber into long, decorative strips using a vegetable peeler or mandoline. Set aside.
Cut the nori sheet into small strips, approximately 1 inch wide, for garnish.
To make the dipping sauce, mix the soy sauce and lemon juice in a small bowl.
Arrange the sliced eel sashimi on a serving platter, alternating with cucumber slices for visual appeal.
Place small, decorative mounds of wasabi and pickled ginger on the platter for each serving.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the sashimi slices. Garnish with sesame seeds and nori strips.
Serve the eel sashimi immediately with the soy-lemon dipping sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
