Paint me like one of your french girls! đ¨ Yellowtail crudo with orange, fennel & red hot chili peppers. Recipe belowđâ
â
So what’s the difference between sashimi and crudo? Let’s get cultured, fam. Sashimi is a Japanese preparation that is made with expertly cut raw fish typically served with a side of soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger while crudo is an Italian preparation of raw fish drizzle with olive oil and typically cured with citrus.â
â
đ Since the fish will be consumed raw it is important to purchase sushi or sashimi-grade fish, which is typically flash frozen soon after it’s caught to maintain it’s fresh quality. I am using Yellowtail for this recipe, a mild-flavored fish with a firm texture and buttery taste when served raw.â
