Today, there are more than ten varieties of this dish. Its name usually changes depending on the seafood used. For example, if the fish used for the dish is Salmon, it is called Sake sashimi.

Preparation:
1. Fillet the fish with a very sharp knife. As much as possible, you would want to cut them as thinly as possible without damaging their meat.

3. Arrange the cut meat and vegetables in a platter.
