Hello, how are you all doing? Here we will introduce delicious food from Japan.
【history】
The origin of sashimi is ancient, and it is said that by the Heian period, a culture of ‘cutting and eating raw fish’ already existed. At that time, preservation techniques were limited, so sashimi developed mainly in coastal areas where fresh fish could be obtained.
By the Muromachi period, knife skills had improved, giving rise to the culture of the ‘hocho-bito,’ craftsmen who cut fish beautifully. During the Edo period, as soy sauce became widespread, sashimi also became popular among the common people, establishing the current style of ‘soy sauce + wasabi.’
Sashimi is a traditional Japanese dish that developed through the combination of Japan’s seas, knife skills, and seasoning culture.
【characteristic】
Sashimi is a dish that allows you to enjoy the taste of seafood itself.
Since it is not cooked, the freshness of the ingredients and how they are cut are very important.
● You can taste the taste of the ingredients as they are
You can directly enjoy the flavor, sweetness, aroma, and texture of the fish.
● The taste changes depending on how you cut it.
The texture changes depending on how you cut it, such as slicing, flattening, or finely cutting.
● Compatibility with soy sauce, wasabi, and condiments
The spiciness of wasabi, the umami of soy sauce, and condiments such as ginger and shiso leaves enhance the taste.
● There is a “season” for each season
Even the same fish has different fat and taste depending on the season.
Because sashimi is simple, it is a deep dish that shows the “ingredients, techniques, and seasons” as they are.
