A 160g pack of Japanese whiting — kisu — pre-sliced and ready for sushi or sashimi. Kisu is the leanest of all hikarimono (silver-skinned fish used in sushi), with a fat content as low as 1%, giving it a clean, delicate flavour and pearlescent flesh that’s prized by sushi chefs. A premium-quality Japanese ingredient, made accessible at home for nigiri night, chirashi bowls and tempura.
