Title: Xxcarol's Sashimi Delight - Aku Or Ahi
Categories: Japanese, Seafood, Xxcarol
Yield: 4 Servings
1 lb Aku or ahi (tuna)
1/2 c Worstershire sauce (brown)
1/2 c Shoyu (soy sauce)
1/4 ts Wasabi powder
Now this is a simple and delicious mainstay in my home. What you need
is really *fresh* fish. To tell if it is fresh enough, sniff it and
if it smells more than faintly fishy, its too old for this dish. Make
blackened fish of it in that case.
What to do? Chop up that fish pretty and bite sized. Its also called
Yellowfin or skipjack tuna. Keep it in an airtight container until
just before serving, then add the sauce in dipping bowls to the side
of the fish.
Goes perfectly with short or medium grain 'sticky rice' (regular rice
made to not be fluffy, but stick together so easier eaten with
chopsticks) and plain vegetables such as green beans, Bok Choy
cabbage, or sliced fresh cucumber pieces. Add a few rice crackers and
all is set.
For dessert, consider slices of pear or fresh peach.
Nutritional notes: High in sodium due to the sauces, but low in fat
and calories. Suitable for diabetics.

Interesting detail that the fish is frozen, and then frozen.
My brother spent a significant amount of time living in Japan, and he preferred to eat fish that had not been frozen. I only know of one
place in the state to get sashimi like that, and i don't know for sure whether it is still in business.
By the way, what does the Xx in Xxcarol stand for?
LOL, xx comes from Arpanet where I was a military systems sysop. Us bored watchstanders would chat world-wide. We only had a 60 character chat line so to save space, tradition was to us your initials. Problem, Charlie Parker had mine (before I got married). So used xx for female chromosomes. Funny is happened to a guy so he got called xy (male chromosomes).
Today, it mostly separates me from all the other 'carol's' out there.
Sorry it's so mundane (grin)

That was one of my guesses! That it stood for XX chromosomes. I had no ide about the history. Wow, a 60 character chat line. That's 100 characters shorter than the old SMS message size limit. Hardcore!

It's Xtra Xtra down to earth. :-)
