Raw Fish Salad (Japanese Sashimi)
Ingredients:
1 lb Bass (raw) or:
- Tuna (raw) or: other
- fish of your choice, fresh
- water or salt, bones and
- skin removed and slivered
1/2 c Gingerroot, fresh, chopped
-or: 1/4 c powdered ginger
1/2 c Horseradish, grated
1/2 c Mustard sauce or: 1/4 c
- mustard powder
Water, for mixing sauce
- ingredients
Bowl of very fresh salad
- greens, broken or cut into
- small pieces
Instructions:
In this popular dish, the Japanese enjoy eating their fish completely raw, cut
in slivers about 1/4 inch thick, and dipped into a mixture of fresh chopped
gingerroot, grated horseradish and mustard. We add dishes of very fresh greens,
turning the Sashimi into a salad. If your fish is very, very fresh, your dishes
colorful and attractively arranged, and if you accompany your first bite of
raw fish with a generous mouthful of crisp greens, you will probably be able
to overcome your prejudices and discover what the Japanese have known for centuries:
fish doesn't have to be cooked to taste good. INSTRUCTIONS: Set out the slivered
fish, 3 dishes of seasonings and salad greens and let everyone mix his own sauce,
tasting and testing as he does, and help himself to greens.
