And I have to be frank, the taste of tuna is what brings me back to Japan over and over again. I just really really like it and can’t find this same quality tuna anywhere else I tried it.
Hey, what’s the leaf? Do you eat it?
I think it was sesame leaf, and at least in Korea we eat them very often, especially during Korean BBQ.
Definitely shiso! Very common w/ sushi. We grow shiso leaf at home in our garden.
Oh cool, thanks! How is it eaten exactly? Do you use it like a tortilla to roll up around other bits, or nibble it in between bites of fish, as a palate cleanser, or to add flavor? Also, what flavor is it? So many questions lol
