Treat your guests to an epic spread of fresh, sushi-grade fish and all the fixings. This is a great meal to serve guests because it doesn’t really require much cooking at all! To balance the fish, this board includes Japanese pickles (cucumbers, daikon, and ginger), ikura (salmon roe), crunchy snacks senbei (rice crackers) and tempura nori for some added texture, and, of course, California Avocado.
