Grouper cheek steaks (other big fish as well):
Fillet out the cheek steaks, slice off the skin. If you want, marinate in a butter and fresh lemon mixture. Fry or bake in the same mixture, salt & pepper to taste. Consider add ons like cajun seasoning, bread crumbs and/or crushed nuts (prefer walnuts). Really easy - tastes great like large sea scallops.

Sashimi - the proper way to eat sashimi:
​
You should be sure to eat sashimi with chopsticks, and take care not to overload each piece with soy sauce, which overpowers the flavor of the fish.
Here comes the steps to eat sashimi properly:
  • Step 1: Lay out one sashimi piece
  • Step 2: Put a little wasabi on top
  • Step 3: Fold the piece over the wasabi
  • Step 4: Light dip into soy sauce and enjoy it
Remember to eat sashimi in one bite.

Shashimi - various types:

  • Kanpachi sashimi (amberjack)
Kanpachi (also called yellowtail or amberjack), is a type of lean, mild and slightly creamy tasting fish that comes at its best in early summer. The color is a very light pinkish-white that’s almost translucent. They are specially favored for their taut, richly fatty flesh by many foodies.

  • Ahi (Yellowfin & Bigeye Tuna)
Ahi is the name for two types of tuna, which are yellowfin and bigeye tuna. While yellowfin has a mild flavor and a firm texture making it ideal for sashimi, bigeye features a higher fat content and buttery flavor.
