Katsuo Nigiri is a classic sushi dish that showcases the delicate flavor of bonito. To make Katsuo Nigiri, you will need the following ingredients: sushi rice, bonito fillets, soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger. Start by preparing the sushi rice according to your preferred method. Once the rice is ready, shape it into small oblong shapes using wet hands. Place a thin slice of bonito on top of each rice mound. To enhance the flavor of the bonito, lightly sear the fish with a blowtorch or a hot skillet. This step is optional but adds a smoky and slightly charred taste to the dish. Serve the Katsuo Nigiri with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side. The combination of the tender bonito, seasoned rice, and the kick of wasabi creates a delightful sushi experience. Enjoy!
