Salmon and Tuna Sashimi Platter Recipe with Wasabi - finished dish

Ingredients

  • 120g (4 oz) sashimi-grade salmon, chilled
  • 120g (4 oz) sashimi-grade tuna, chilled
  • Wasabi paste, to taste
  • Soy sauce, for dipping
  • Pickled ginger (optional)
  • Shredded daikon radish or cucumber, for garnish
  • Lemon slices or shiso leaves, for presentation

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients: Ensure both salmon and tuna are well-chilled. Use a very sharp knife to slice the fish into even, clean slices about 1/4 inch (6mm) thick.

  2. Plate the sashimi: Arrange slices of salmon and tuna artfully on a chilled plate or platter. Alternate colors for visual contrast.

  3. Garnish: Add shredded daikon, cucumber, lemon slices, or shiso leaves for decoration. Place a small amount of wasabi on the side.

  4. Serve: Serve immediately with soy sauce and optional pickled ginger.

Notes

  • Only use sashimi-grade fish from a trusted source
  • Keep the knife clean and damp for cleaner cuts
  • Chill plate before serving for optimal texture and food safety
  • Add scallop, yellowtail, or octopus for a larger sashimi assortment
