Fishy business

It’s a classic scene: the waiter drops a plate of blowfish sashimi on the Lazy Susan. If it’s been prepared correctly, no one will die. If the Chef has hit the poison glands, everyone will die an agonising death.

The good news is that Peter Kurivita from Flying Fish won’t make you cut up blowfish but he will teach you how to ninja up a fillet ‘o’ fish.

The truth is that raw fish scares the bejeezus out of most homecooks; it’s a rare person who actually wants to poison their guests. Real life is not an Agatha Christie novel.

The remedy to this common problem is to take a Flying Fish sushi and sashimi masterclass and find out how to select a quality fish, slice it correctly, cook sushi rice and condiments and then bust out your creativity on the plate.

The best thing? When you’re finished, you get to eat it (if you dare).
