Some years ago, when I was still sailing, I took my cousin on a weekend
sail to the Channel Islands (Santa Rosa & Santa Cruz). On our way back to
Oxnard, he trolled off the stern and caught two beautiful tuna (Albacore, I
think). He gutted them and gave me a 2-1/2 footer. The next day my Japanese
gardener arrived. I said, "Itani-san, what do I do with this?" He grabbed a
knife and prepared some wonderful sashimi, which we sat in the back yard
and consumed with gusto and good conversation, accompanied by some wasabi,
gari and sake, which I had on hand.

Since then, I've thrown many sashimi parties with fish bought at Yaohan Mkt
in Sho Tokyo, LA, but I must admit, I've never made sushi.
