作り方
- 1
Chill a sharp yanagiba or sashimi knife in ice water to ensure clean cuts. Prepare a clean cutting board dedicated to raw fish.
3 minutes
A chilled knife helps prevent the maguro from tearing and preserves texture.

Rinse and peel the daikon radish. Julienne finely into thin strips and soak in ice water for extra crispness.
4 minutes
Soaking daikon in ice water enhances its crunch and presentation.
- 3
Pat the maguro dry with a paper towel. Trim away any sinew or dark spots for the best texture and appearance.
2 minutes
Uniform slices improve both taste and visual appeal.
- 4
With the grain running horizontally, slice the maguro into 1cm thick pieces using a single, clean stroke per slice.
