Abalone nigiri sushi
The key to success is to boil the abalone in water so that the flesh does not become tough. By using the abalone broth as a sauce, you can create a richer flavor
How to make it
1
Remove the abalone from the shell, remove the liver and use the meat. Cut into thin diagonal slices about 2mm thick and boil in a pot of water for about 15 minutes
2
Leave enough cooking water to cover the abalone, add the seasonings (A) and simmer for 4-5 minutes
3
Once the broth has absorbed the flavor, remove the fish and let it cool. Lightly tap the edges of the fish with a knife to improve the texture
4
Bring the remaining broth to a boil and reduce it to a sauce
5
Place wasabi on vinegared rice (approximately 15g per piece), add abalone meat and form into sushi
6
Arrange on a plate, garnish with sweet and sour ginger if desired, and brush with the reduced sauce to finish
