Instructions

Sashimi:

  1. Thaw meat slightly. It should still be fairly frozen when you slice it. Slice meat against the grain into paper-thin slices. Place slices on a paper towel-lined plate in a single layer. Cover and refrigerate until meat is fully thawed and paper-towels have soaked up some juices.
  2. Arrange meat in a single layer on a platter or sushi dish. Pour ponzu sauce over the meat. Arrange chili crisp, jalapeno slices, bonito flakes and lime and orange zest over the meat. Return dish to the fridge for 15-20 minutes to chill completely. Serve with pickled ginger on the side.

Ponzu:

  1. Combine all ingredients in a small glass jar. Refrigerate overnight. Strain out solids and it's ready to go!
