Kohada nigiri is a classic sushi dish that showcases the natural flavors of gizzard shad. To make this dish, you will need sushi rice, kohada fillets, soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger. Start by preparing the sushi rice according to your preference. Then, clean the kohada fillets and slice them into thin strips. Take a small handful of sushi rice and shape it into a rectangular mound. Place a slice of kohada on top of the rice and gently press it to form a nigiri. Serve the kohada nigiri with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger. The combination of the tender kohada, seasoned rice, and condiments creates a harmonious balance of flavors. Each bite is a delightful experience for sushi lovers.
