Product Description

Fresh Akame, characterized by its striking red leaves and a subtly bitter, herbaceous flavor, is a notable ingredient in Japanese cuisine. This vibrant red herb is particularly favored by chefs for garnishing sashimi dishes, where its bold color contrasts beautifully with the delicate hues of raw fish, enhancing the visual appeal. Additionally, its unique flavor profile adds a nuanced taste dimension to sashimi, complementing the freshness of the seafood with a touch of bitterness and depth.

Chefs will recommend to put some of these leaves in the shoyu (soy sauce) plate when customers enjoy sashimi, not only to add visual appeal with their vibrant color but also to subtly infuse the soy sauce with their unique flavor. This practice enhances the overall sashimi experience, providing a beautiful contrast to the dish and a hint of Akame's distinctive taste with each bite.
