When sashimi quality tuna is delivered to my door.... I create something magical with it!  I consider cooking as an art form. There are only five primary flavours, and your creativity sets you apart when you combine them well.   My signature Yuzu-Miso dressing recipe is an ode to Japanese flavours, wonderfully balanced to perfection. The yuzu adds a touch of sweetness, imparting floral notes to this umami-packed dressing.   Edible flowers in this dish are so much more than a garnish, offering unique aromas. Nasturtium flowers give that distinctive peppery flavour, whilst Borage brings that mild cucumber flavour with a hint of honey. Sounds delicious right?================================= Follow my flavour journey and travels on Instagram here @a_journey_of_flavour_by_sai =================================
