  1. 2
    Freeze the fish 2 hours, for food safety. Thaw for 15 minutes and pat very dry with paper towels.

  2. 3
    Slice the fish with a sharp knife, in a single stroke and on a diagonal to the grain, into thin slices. Arrange on cold plates in a single layer.

    💡The fish for crudo is very fresh and kept cold until the last moment. Slice in one long stroke, without sawing, so the slices stay smooth.
  3. 4
    Drizzle the dressing over the fish just before serving, and sprinkle the sesame seeds and scallions on top.
    💡The dressing goes on only just before serving: the lemon "cooks" the fish, and after a few minutes it loses its raw texture.
  4. 5
    Serve immediately, with the wasabi on the side.
