How to make your own sashimi :D
Not for the faint of heart. All for sake of knowledge:
Sashimi has a lot to do with knife techniques. So aside from having a good knife that is sharp, you need to know where to cut to give you the perfect slices. This video in action is not something you get to see in any Sushi bars as most sushi chefs would rather not divulge their technique.
I am not saying this is perhaps the REAL deal. It’s close to and it gives you a pretty good idea how to start cutting your fish. Oh, your fish has to be REALLY fresh, of course.
No freshwater fish for sashimis, general rule of thumb. Fresh was water fish has parasites but not saltwater fishes. :)

I found this and still doubting whether this is real or not. Have you heard of the swimming bones? A friend of mine in Japan said there is a restaurant in Tokyo that does this.
