If you’re hosting a party on New Year’s Eve, this bright, flavorful dish will make a splash at your gathering. Fresh salmon is thinly sliced, then gets drizzled with a mixture of soy sauce, toasted sesame oil and a touch of ponzu, a Japanese citrus sauce. For a luxe finish, we top the seafood with a dollop of umami-rich Kewpie mayo and a spoonful of caviar infused with sake; thin slices of jalapeño lend a touch of heat. Purchase the best-quality salmon you can find, preferably wild. To pour alongside, we suggest clear dry sake, Riesling or Cortese di Gavi, an Italian dry white wine produced in southern Piedmont.
