RECIPE • HAMACHI CRUDO + POTATO CROQUETTES intro

hamachi, oh how i love you. but the amount of times that i’ve been disappointed with a ~hAmaCHi CRuDo~ at a restaurant is unacceptable. it’s almost become a “standard fancy restaurant” appetizer (at least in LA).

this recipe was inspired by one of the more proper and interesting ‘hamachi crudos’ i’ve had in LA, from Bäco Mercat. it pairs the cold slices of fish with hot potato balls, and who doesn’t love deep-fried cheesy potato vessels to carry slices of yellowtail and avocado.

if you’re in LA, i source my fish from LA Fish Co and Pacific Fresh Fish Co. you can also hit the local asian markets to find some fish suitable for raw consumption.

i’ve been listening to ENAMOUR’s for quite a while now. if you’re into the melodic house/techno scene, you should definitely listen to some of his songs. he’s also quite the cook, he’s got a few cooking videos on his IG channel as well.

What is the purpose of the rubber finger cover? To protect from the knife, but why just one finger? 🤗

Hamachi is farmed while yellowtail is domesticated usually
