Sashimi

Sashimi" (??) is a Japanese term that refers to thinly sliced, fresh, and raw seafood. It's a popular dish in Japanese cuisine known for its simplicity and emphasis on the natural flavors of the high-quality, raw ingredients. The word "sashimi" itself can be broken down into two parts: "sashi" (?), which means "pierced" or "stabbed," and "mi" (?), which means "body" or "flesh." This term reflects the traditional way of preparing sashimi by slicing the seafood thinly, allowing it to be consumed without cooking.
