I wanted to eat something light and refreshing on a hot and humid day.
I like olive oil and sesame oil, but I didn't use them in this recipe.

-This is best served soon after cooking, or up to 2 hours after. It's best not to let it sit for too long.
-If you also use the scallop's mantle, it's good to use a lot of salt.
-This recipe also works well with sea bream or other white meat fish.
-Be sure to use freshly squeezed lemon juice. Recipe by Tokurai

Ingredients

  1. 1 blockSashimi grade flounder
  2. 1/2Lemon juice
  3. 1/2knob Ginger
  4. 6Shiso leaves
  5. 1Red chili pepper
  6. 1Rock salt

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the flounder diagonally into bite-sized pieces. Squeeze out the lemon juice. Grate the ginger.

  2. 2

    Mince or finely chop the shiso. Remove the seeds from the chili pepper and mince (this is easy using kitchen scissors).

  3. 3

    Combine Steps 1 and 2 in a bowl together, add the rock salt and mix together well. Chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Flavor with salt (if necessary) before serving.

  4. 4

    It's even better if you mix it while chilling. The acidity of the lemon will turn the outside of the sashimi white.
