Ingredients

Servings:2
  • 200 grams Sashimi-grade Sea Bream or Snapper
  • 1 piece Kombu (Dried Kelp)
  • 1 cup Bonito Flakes
  • 150 grams Silken Tofu
  • 100 grams Fresh Seasonal Mushrooms (Shiitake or Shimeji)
  • 2 tablespoons Usukuchi (Light Soy Sauce)
  • 1 tablespoon Mirin
  • 1 cup Koshihikari Rice
  • 1 inch Fresh Wasabi Root(optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Yuzu Juice(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ichiban Dashi by soaking kombu in 4 cups of water, bringing to a simmer, then adding bonito flakes and straining after 2 minutes.

  2. 2

    For the Mukozuke (Sashimi course), thinly slice the sea bream and serve with a small amount of freshly grated wasabi and a drop of yuzu.

  3. 3

    Create the Wanmono (Soup course) by seasoning 2 cups of dashi with light soy sauce and mirin, then gently poaching the silken tofu and mushrooms.

  4. 4

    Steam the Koshihikari rice according to package instructions, ensuring it is fluffy and pearlescent for the Gohan course.

  5. 5

    For the Yakimono (Grilled course), lightly sear a small portion of the fish with a brush of soy sauce until just opaque.

  6. 6

    Plate each course on distinct, beautiful ceramic small plates to emphasize the seasonal aesthetic.

  7. 7

    Serve the courses sequentially, starting with the cold sashimi and ending with the warm rice and soup.

  8. 8

    Garnish with seasonal greens or edible flowers to complete the visual presentation.
