Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings

  • Fresh salmon fillet, plenty
  • 0.5 onion
  • 1 cup lemon-lime soda
  • 1/3 cup dark soy sauce
  • wasabi, a little
  • radish sprouts, a little
  • 1 lemon wedge

Recipe 🍳

  1. Place fresh salmon fillet on the cutting board and cut against the grain of the white fat lines into long, noodle-like strips.
  2. If the salmon belly is too thick, slice it thinly horizontally as if filleting, then cut into long strips to keep the noodle thickness even.
  3. Thinly julienne half an onion, and to preserve crunchiness and remove the spicy taste, soak the slices in cold water sufficiently before preparing the dish.
  4. In a measuring container, pour together 1 cup of lemon-lime soda and 1/3 cup of dark soy sauce to make a clean noodle sauce without any added sugar or seasoning.
  5. Taste the sauce lightly and adjust by adding a small amount of soda or soy sauce to suit your preference.
  6. Evenly spread the thoroughly drained crunchy onion slices over the bottom of a shallow bowl.
  7. On top of the onion slices, generously place the thin, long salmon sashimi strips as if twirling noodles.
  8. Garnish with radish sprouts, fresh wasabi, and a refreshing lemon slice, and right before eating, squeeze lemon juice into the sauce or add a little vinegar to enjoy.
  1. Slice salmon against the grain into thin, long strips; soak julienned onion in cold water to remove spicy flavor.
  2. Mix 1 cup lemon-lime soda and 1/3 cup dark soy sauce evenly to create a special sweet and savory sauce.
  3. Place onion slices and salmon noodles in a bowl, then top with wasabi, radish sprouts, lemon juice, and pour the sauce over to accompany.

Cooking tips 💡

  • When cutting salmon sashimi, cut against the grain instead of with it so that when you pick up long strands with chopsticks, the flesh stays firm and springy without breaking.
  • Using regular lemon-lime soda rather than sugar-free zero soda is much better for creating the characteristic rich sweetness and savory depth in the sauce.
  • If fresh lemon is unavailable, mixing about 0.5 tablespoon of store-bought lemon juice or plain vinegar into the sauce will double the refreshing taste.
