Otoro Sushi Two Ways



Enjoy the most valued cut of bluefin fatty tuna belly with this recipe for Otoro Sushi. I show you two ways to prepare this delicacy—seared and drizzled with yuzu juice or with just a touch of soy sauce. Either way, the sushi practically melts in your mouth.

Ingredients

  • sushi-grade otoro (fatty tuna)
  • sushi rice pillows
  • yuzu

For Serving

  • soy sauce
  • wasabi
  • sushi ginger(for my homemade recipe, click here)

Instructions

  • Gather all the ingredients.

  • Slice to desired thickness. Due to the high fat content, a thinner slice is recommended.

  • Scrape the meat off from the skin. This part is considered one of tuna’s most delicious part and you can use it to make negitoro donburi.
