Ingredients

What you'll need

  • 1 lb salmon nigiri
  • 1 tsp soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 2 tsp scallions
  • 1 medium toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 lb fresh ginger
  • to taste good finishing oil
Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the salmon nigiri dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the salmon nigiri, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
