Which description accurately reflects the Hamachi Nigiri presentation?

• A. Hamachi, thinly sliced and served over wasabi brushed sushi rice. Finished with a lemon oil, garnished with salt, Hackleback caviar, gold leaf, and fresh chives. Served with wasabi and pickled ginger.
• B. Allergies: fish.
• C. Tuna Nigiri is brushed with soy and served on rice.
• D. Salmon Belly Nigiri is torched.

Answer: (B)

Hamachi Nigiri is built by placing a thin slice of yellowtail on top of a small, compact bed of seasoned sushi rice, often with a light touch of wasabi either on the rice or the fish and a subtle, refined finish. The description that matches this presentation explicitly mentions hamachi, thinly sliced, over wasabi-brushed sushi rice, with a delicate finish and classic accompaniments like wasabi and pickled ginger. The other statements aren’t descriptions of this dish: one refers to an allergy, another describes tuna nigiri with soy, and another talks about torched salmon belly nigiri. So the description that centers hamachi on rice with restrained garnish is the correct reflection of Hamachi Nigiri presentation.
