He dresses the fish in a sauce of shallots, wasabi-marinated peppers, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and mirin. He also uses that sauce on blanched string beans, cherry tomatoes and kalamata olives. Rounding out the dish is an egg that is boiled and then quickly cooled resulting in a hard white and soft yolk.
