Kodai Kasugodai (Baby Seabream) カスゴダイ
$48.00
When a sea bream is around one year of age and six inches in length, it is called kasugodai. It is found on the Japanese coast, and like most snappers is popular in Japan. Edomae style preparation of kasugo is typical of hikarimono: the fish is first scaled and deboned, then salted for about half an hour. The salt is rinsed off with vinegar, then the fish is soaked in fresh vinegar for just a few minutes. It should not be marinated for too long, or the flesh will dry out. The resulting flavors are amazingly complex: salty, sour, umami, sweet… it is all there in one perfect bite.
