1 — JAPONICA RICE
Wash the rice 3 to 4 times. Soak in cold water for 30 minutes. Allow to dry for 20 minutes until the rice turns white. Cook 500ml rice and 400ml water in a rice cooker and only after one hour open and turn out of the cooker, marinate directly with 100ml marinade, and let it steam out.

2 — PUMPKIN PUREE
Wash the pumpkin thoroughly, cut into eighths, place on a baking tray, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with fleur de sel. Cook in the oven at 160°C (320°F) for 60 minutes. Then finely puree and season with fleur de sel, nutmeg and honey.

3 — SALMON (FJORD) TROUT
Remove the skin from the fish and cut into ½ cm cubes. Marinate with soy sauce and wasabi.

4 — PONZU SAUCE
Mix all the ingredients together. Alternatively, you can buy a ready- made ponzu sauce at the Asian supermarket. Use 1.5 tablespoon to marinate the dish.

5 — SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS
Cut the Shiitake mushrooms into eighths, fry in olive oil, remove from the pan and marinate with soy sauce.

6 — PUFFED BROWN RICE
Cook the brown rice until soft, dry and fry at 220°C (428°F).
