Appetisers & Starters

Sakamushi (酒蒸し, steamed in sake) Fish is a very authentic Japanese dish and sometimes served in kaiseki-ryori (multi-course haute cuisine). In a nutshell: White-fleshed fish is steamed with plenty of sake (酒, Japanese rice wine). This is a very simple method of cooking fish but the flavour of fish is amazing. It will make you feel like you are having a dish at a high-class restaurant!

Karashiae dressing is a Japanese mustard dressing which is made with mustard, soy sauce and dashi stock. It has a kick of hot mustard but is quite light as it does not use oil at all unlike most Western salad dressings. I used broccolini today but you can use other vegetables.

Asparagus is wrapped in thinly sliced beef, then cooked in flavoursome sauce. The sauce of the beef rolls is similar to teriyaki sauce so the flavour is guaranteed. Perfect for appetiser or as party food.

Tofu with plenty of vegetable in thick sauce. It makes the otherwise a simple tofu so special and pretty.
