Ingredients
- 60 cm kombu seaweed
- 2 tablespoons (soup) rice vinegar (30 ml)
- 240 g skinless sea bass fillet
Modo de preparo
- In a large, shallow dish, place the kombu and brush its entire surface with vinegar. Let rest for 10 minutes, or until the seaweed becomes slightly pliable.
- On a cutting board, place the piece of kombu and, on top, arrange the fish. Fold the kombu over the fish so that the entire surface of the fish is in contact with the seaweed. Wrap in plastic film, making sure the fish is tightly compacted. Place it in a dish and put a weight on top. Refrigerate for 24 hours.
- Remove the fish from the refrigerator and discard the plastic wrap and the kombu. Slice thinly and serve immediately.
