Step-by-Step Instructions

Thaw Hamachi in the refrigerator overnight if frozen. Ensure it is sushi-grade for safety.
Place the fish in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to firm for slicing.
Juice lemons or yuzu into a bowl to have about 2 tablespoons prepared and slice your pepper.
In a bowl, combine soy sauce, citrus juice, and olive oil; whisk until emulsified.
Slice the chilled Hamachi against the grain into 1-2 inch pieces.
Arrange the sliced Hamachi on a serving plate in a circular pattern.
Drizzle the citrus-soy dressing around the fish, ensuring pieces are visible.
Garnish with thin pepper slices, flaky sea salt, and fresh cilantro.
Serve immediately, keeping it chilled until serving.
