Nishin (Herring Roe Sashimi) – What is the correct way to eat sashimi?

When talking about Japanese cuisine, it’s impossible not to mention sashimi – the quintessential dish of the Land of the Rising Sun. At Japanese restaurants, sashimi is a top choice for many diners, with popular types including octopus, salmon, tuna, fish roe, and red shrimp. However, among these familiar dishes, there is a unique type of sashimi, reserved for those who crave something different: Nishin – herring roe sashimi.

If you’ve never heard of this name, it’s probably because Nishin isn’t a common dish. It’s a premium sashimi delicacy, offering a unique taste experience. Nishin is the perfect combination of soft herring and crispy capelin roe. As you enjoy it, you’ll sense the delicacy of each ingredient blending together, creating a harmonious symphony for your palate.

The standout feature of Nishin lies in the thinness of each fish slice, paired with artistic presentation. You can lightly dip it in soy sauce, add a touch of wasabi, or enjoy it in its original form – depending on your personal preference. However, no matter how you choose to enjoy it, the flavor of Nishin retains its refined, elegant taste as a top-tier dish.

So, what is the correct way to eat sashimi?

Step 1: Use chopsticks to gently pick up each slice of sashimi. If desired, you can drizzle or dip the sashimi in soy sauce, wasabi, or a bit of ginger. However, with premium sashimi like Nishin, sometimes the best way to fully appreciate its flavor is to enjoy it in its original form.

Step 2: Place the sashimi in your mouth and slowly savor the texture of each fish slice. Some pieces will be soft and buttery, while others might have a unique chewy, crunchy texture. Chew slowly to fully appreciate the layers of delicate flavors.

Step 3: Sashimi is a refined dish, requiring meticulous preparation by the chef. Therefore, try to maintain the original flavor and avoid altering it too much by adding overly strong seasonings.
