Sashimi and Nigiri
Sashimi (刺身) is a Japanese delicacy consisting of
very fresh raw meat or fish sliced into thin pieces.
you may start with sashimi to awaken your mouth
to the pure flavors of the fish.
And Nigiri (握り寿司, hand-pressed sushi) consists of
an oblong mound of sushi rice that the chef presses into
a small rectangular box between the palms of the hands,
usually with a bit of wasabi, and a topping (the neta) draped over it.
Neta are typically fish such as salmon, tuna or other seafood.
Certain toppings are typically bound to the rice with a
thin strip of nori, most commonly octopus (tako),
freshwater eel (unagi), sea eel (anago), squid (ika),
and sweet egg (tamago).
You may choose to serve as Nigiri (2 pcs) or Sashimi (3 pcs).

The block is removed from the mold and then cut into bite-sized pieces.
