Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Fresh eel fillet
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low-sodium)
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Fresh wasabi paste
- 10 grams Fresh ginger
- 0.5 piece Lemon
- 1 sheet Seaweed (nori sheets)
- 50 grams Daikon radish
- 2 stalks Scallions
Instructions
Begin by ensuring your eel fillet is fresh and properly cleaned. Pat it dry with a paper towel.
Slice the eel fillet against the grain into thin sashimi pieces, approximately 1/4 inch thick and 2 inches long.
Peel and julienne the ginger into very thin strips. Place in a bowl of cold water to crisp.
Slice the scallions finely and set aside for garnish.
Use a vegetable peeler to create thin slices of daikon radish. Arrange the daikon slices on the serving plate as a decorative base.
Cut the lemon half into thin wedges for serving.
Prepare the dipping sauce by mixing the low-sodium soy sauce with rice vinegar in a small bowl.
To serve, arrange the eel slices neatly over the daikon bed, interspersing with lemon wedges and a small amount of fresh wasabi paste.
Garnish the eel slices with a sprinkle of scallions and the drained julienned ginger.
Use kitchen scissors to cut the nori sheet into thin strips. Arrange the nori strips over the sashimi for an added touch of flavor.
Serve immediately with additional soy-vinegar dipping sauce on the side.
