6 B SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2016 Cook up Japanese cuisine in your own kitchen Th ree-section fi llet: Place the fi sh on the cutting board with the tail on the right, belly side closer to you. Insert the knife into the fi sh above the pelvic fi n, keeping the cutting edge fl at, and cut till the head. Turn the fi sh around so that the tail is on your left ; insert the knife into the fi sh above the dorsal fi n, keeping the cutting edge fl at; cut to the tail. Lift the upper side of the fi sh and insert the knife with the blade fl at. Cut with a slide motion along the backbone toward the tail (do not cut any of the bones) until you have completely freed the top fi llet all the way to the tail and the fi sh is cut into two sections. Flip the fi sh over and repeat on the bottom sides. Now you have three sections. Place the middle section (the section with bones) so that the fi ns hang over the edge of the cutting board, then cut the dorsal and ventral fi ns off . Save the bones to make soup. Needle-thin slivers refreshed in water: Cut into 2-inch lengths. Make a vertical cut halfway until the core. Remove the core. Unrool the outer layers and fl atten on the cutting board. Slice vertically into needle-thin slivers. Th is takes time and practice, and a well- sharpened knife. Take your time and cut diligently in a straight and an even motion. Place slivers in a bowl of cold water. Refresh for 10 minutes, except for perilla, which should be refreshed very briefl y so as not to lose its fl avor. To brick cut: Place the thicker side of the saku away from you; insert the knife perpendicular to the thinner side and pull the knife toward you by snapping your wrist. Arrange on the dish perpendicularly. Where good friends & great food come together! Wednesday dinner special: 10 oz. Prime Rib and Salad, with your choice of Pasta or Potatoes!
