About
Hamachi, or Japanese Amberjack (Seriola quinqueradiata), is a prized fish native to the northwest Pacific Ocean, from Korea to Hawaii. In Japan, it's a beloved delicacy, especially during the colder months. Known for its high-fat content and succulent taste, this fish is widely enjoyed both raw and cooked. Although commonly referred to as 'yellowtail tuna,' Hamachi belongs to a different family entirely (Carangidae) and is distinct in flavor and texture.
Preparation
Hamachi shines in sashimi and sushi dishes, showcasing its buttery texture. It’s also excellent when grilled or seared, allowing the fat to enrich its flavor. Slice 6mm to 1cm thick for the best mouthfeel.
