Tuna Sashimi

Tuna sashimi is a dish that celebrates the pure taste and delicate texture of raw fish. Only the freshest and highest quality tuna (such as maguro or ahi) is used for sashimi, which is sliced into thin, even pieces. Each cut of tuna, depending on its part (e.g., akami – lean part, chu-toro – medium fatty, otoro – fattiest), has its own unique flavor and texture – from firm and lean to very tender and buttery. Tuna sashimi, like other types of sashimi, is served with traditional accompaniments: soy sauce for umami flavor, wasabi paste for spiciness, and pickled ginger (gari) to cleanse the palate
