 Sashimi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some sashimi ingredients, like octopus, are served cooked, but most fish, like tuna, are served raw.
Less common but not unusual sashimi ingredients are vegetarian items such as yuba (bean curd skin) and raw red meats such as beef or horse.
The name sashimi may have come from the practice of sticking the tail of the fish on the slices, to let it be known which fish one was eating.
