Sashimi, Spinach Gomaae and Mochi Dessert

Last night we set up our own little sushi restaurant style dinner at home with a colorful assortment of sashimi from Nijiya, along with miso soup and spinach gomaae (sesame dressing). Our favorite sashimi was what I think was a fatty katsuo (bonito). The gomaae recipe I used (ground up sesame seeds + soy sauce + sugar) was yummy but a bit on the sweet side so I might use half the sugar next time. We ended our meal quite happily with a yummy dessert where we threw together mochi, red bean, and green tea ice cream. We liked this meal - just like eating at a restaurant, but you get to have as much ice cream as you want at the end!
