Sachie’s Kitchen Farming Japan's Favourite Fish

Salmon is rapidly becoming one of the staple fish in the Japanese diet and New Zealand King salmon is one of the most prized varieties. To find out what makes New Zealand salmon so special Sachie journeys to a salmon hatchery and then to a salmon farm in the beautiful Marlborough Sounds. While there she samples a sashimi salmon laced with beetroot and alcohol. Then Sachie shows how to make this delightfully simple dish, along with a salmon salad and a local salmon specialty dish cooked by a local chef.
