ARAI - a kind of raw fish

ARAI - a kind of raw fish

July 08, 2005


Do you know "ARAI" ?
ARAI is a kind of raw fish, very popular cooking style of fish in Japan.
Yesterday, i had some ARAI of sea bass, see bass - called "SUZUKI" in Japanese, and drank a little bit(?) of alcohol. :-p


The recipe of ARAI is the following:

  1. Cut the fish into fillets.
  2. Slice the fillets.
  3. Put the sliced peaces into ice-cold water.
  4. Soak them in a several tens of seconds.

We always eat them with soy sauce and grated wasabi, wasabi - Japanese green horseradish paste, so we can eat them lightly-seasoned.
if you like raw fish, let's try and have a good dishes ! :-)


By the way, i took a long time for dinner, because i was dranking for a long while.When i was dranking leisurely, my daughter came to the dinning table, and said me "Can i do my homework here ?".That souds nice, of cource. She seemed like a cute hostess for me. :-)


Bye for now.


Sake & my daughter
