Wasabi paste is sometimes mixed directly into soy sauce as a dipping sauce, which is generally not done when eating sushi (which itself normally includes wasabi). Sashimi is popularly served with a dipping sauce ( soy sauce) and condiments such as wasabi paste, grated fresh ginger, grated fresh garlic, or ponzu for meat sashimi, and such garnishes as shiso and shredded daikon radish. The typical garnish is Asian white radish, daikon, shredded into long thin strands, or single leaves of the herb shiso ( perilla) The sliced seafood that composes the main ingredient is typically draped over a garnish. Japanese chefs consider sashimi the finest dish in Japanese formal dining and recommend that it be eaten before other strong flavors affect the palate.

" 刺身" = sashimi, where 刺 し = sashi (pierced, stuck) and 身 = mi (body, meat). The word sashimi means "pierced body", i.e. Assorted sashimi: tuna, cuttlefish, and seabream
