Rinse the Sasanishiki rice 6 times in cold water. Cover with cold water (20-30 minutes in summertime and 30-40 minutes in winter.) Sieve and cook the rice in a rice cooker with 160g water (use water without calcium/distilled water) for 55 minutes. Season with rice vinegar, Dashi and Champagne.
2 — PREPARING THE SOLE
Cut the sole into 4 fillets and put on a tray greased with butter. Season with salt and black pepper and film tightly.
3 — CHAMPAGNE BEURRE BLANC
Bring the Champagne to a quick boil and turn down the heat. Then blend the cold butter in a little at a time while stirring. Season with salt, lemon and Tabasco. It must not boil but be kept warm on the lowest flame. Chives are finely chopped and added just before being served.
4 — PEARL ONIONS
Peel the pearl onions and cut in halves. Steam them tender in a little water and butter.
5 — STEAMING THE SOLE
Put the sole fillets in a steam oven at 66°C (150°F) for 4 minutes.
