Los Angeles-based photographer and artist Brenden Lott brings a chaotic simplicity of flavor to the table with this Japanese delight. Sashimi, thinly-sliced cuts of various high-quality raw meats, embodies the purposeful tranquility that is the Japanese Shibumi aesthetic. Like a dollop of quiet contentment, snowflake-marbled Miyazaki Wagyu, fermented pear, and fresh wasabi come together in perfect harmony with every bite. It doesn’t get more splendid than that. 

Ingredients

  • Miyazaki Wagyu Sashimi 
  • Fermented Pear 
  • Fresh Wasabi 
  • Nori
  • Sea Salt 
  • Soy Sauce

Instructions

  1. Build each bite yourself. 
  2. Take a slice of beef, put in the nori, top with pear, wasabi, a pinch of salt, and a drop of soy sauce.
  3. Pop the whole bite in your mouth and die of happiness.
