Thinly Sliced Filefish Sashimi with Ponzu
Yes, keto as served. About 3g net carbs per serving, lower than 5 in 10 Japanese dishes.
What it is
Delicate, thinly sliced filefish (kawahagi) presented sashimi-style, often accompanied by its rich, creamy liver (kimo) and a side of sugar-free ponzu sauce for dipping. Known for its subtle flavor and firm texture, enhanced by the optional kimo.
Key ingredients
Filefish (kawahagi), filefish liver (kimo, optional), sugar-free ponzu sauce (sugar-free soy sauce, sudachi/yuzu juice, dashi), green onions (garnish), optional momiji oroshi (grated daikon with chili).
Optional tweaks
Ensure ponzu sauce is sugar-free or ask for plain soy sauce and lemon. Request no added sugar in any condiments. Omit momiji oroshi for stricter carb control.
Say this to the waiter (Japanese)
カワハギの薄造り、ポン酢は砂糖なしですか？または、醤油とレモンでお願いします。薬味にも砂糖なしで、もみじおろしは不要です。
For the カワハギの薄造り, please confirm the ponzu is sugar-free, or provide plain soy sauce and lemon. No added sugar in condiments. No momiji oroshi, please.
Watch out for
Traditional ponzu can contain a small amount of sugar. Momiji oroshi contains daikon, which has some carbs, but is usually served in minimal quantities.
