How to make tuna sashimi

Buy the freshest raw fish and slice it with a sharp sushi knife!

By: Cyril Ermita of Enderun Colleges

Get raw right: Here are tips to help you prepare tuna sashimi right at home.

 

Make sure to purchase fish from reputable suppliers. Delicious for sashimi are tuna, salmon, and mackerel.

All fish, including ocean fish, may contain parasites. Children, older folks, and pregnant women are advised to stay away from uncooked fish.

After purchasing it, head straight home to freeze the fish. To kill any parasites, freeze at -40F or -200C for at least 24 hours. Just thaw before making sashimi or sushi.

you cant reach 200 degrees celsius with a regular ref. or any kitchen equipment. what, did you pour liquid nitrogen on it? the fish would be too hard by then.
