Paint me like one of your french girls! 🎨 Yellowtail crudo with orange, fennel & red hot chili peppers. Recipe below👇⁠
⁠
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.⁠
⁠
🐟 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.⁠
⁠
INGREDIENTS: ⁠
⁠
1 fillet of sushi-grade Yellowtail, skinless and boneless ⁠
⁠
1 tbs olive oil⁠
⁠
1 tbs freshly squeezed orange juice⁠
⁠
1 tsp freshly squeezed lime juice⁠
⁠
1 tsp finely chopped shallot⁠
⁠
1 tsp thinly sliced green onion, diagonal ⁠
⁠
1 tbs thinly sliced cucumber, cut into quarters⁠
⁠
1 tbs thinly sliced fennel⁠
⁠
1 tsp thinly sliced orange, cut into triangles⁠
⁠
1 tsp thinly sliced red hot chili pepper (optional)⁠
⁠
Coarse kosher or sea salt ⁠
⁠
PREPARATION: ⁠
⁠
In a bowl mix together the shallots, cucumber, fennel, orange, green onion, red hot chili pepper, olive oil, and citrus juices and set aside.⁠
⁠
Thinly slice the Yellowtail and add to the bowl with sauce, toss and arrange the fish on a plate, folded in half. Pour the remaining sauce over the top of the fish. Top with salt and you can garnish with fennel leaves. Serve immediately. ⁠🥰⁠
