SERVES 1–2 

For the yuzu sauce 

1 tbsp Yamasa soy sauce 

1 tbsp rice vinegar 

1 tbsp dashi (fish stock) 

½ tsp lime juice 

½ tsp lemon juice 

Pinch of katsuobushi (bonito flakes) 

For the sashimi 

High-grade sashimi-quality salmon fillet (boneless and skinless) 

Caviar or black tobiko 

Microgreens or fresh herbs (for garnish) 

Use the highest-grade fresh sashimi-quality salmon you can find. Ensure it is boneless and skinless. 

With a very sharp knife, slice the salmon thinly at an angle. 

Arrange the slices on a plate in a fan shape. 

Shake all the yuzu sauce ingredients together in a bottle and drizzle generously over the salmon slices. 

Garnish with microgreens or fresh herbs, and finish with a spoonful of caviar or black tobiko for a touch of luxury and visual contrast.
