Product Details
'Saku' is the Japanese term to describe a uniformly cut block of skinless, boneless sashimi-quality seafood. This chef-loved shape makes easy work of sashimi and sushi - simply slice and serve!
Not only are saku cuts ideal for sashimi, sushi, and other raw presentations like crudo, they can be pan seared and sliced for a salad or entrée.
