20 min salt cure

20 min vinegar-mix bath

24h rest in fridge

Topped with nikiri and a few drops of lime juice. Came out surprisingly good despite the fish alone had a pretty sharp, almos citrus-like sourness.

The rice (koshihikari) looks like it's been damaged /cracked after washing and draining. Does this look normal? The kernels looking like they've been damaged do crack and fall apart rather easily when examined. I washed my rice 4 times by whisking with fingers 10-15 times every time and let it drain for 15min. Quality issue or too hard of a wash? Picture of dry rice for reference in the 2nd slide.
