Japanese-style Snapper & Grapefruit Ceviche

"Ceviche" is a dish that combines seafood with avocado, onion, and herbs. This recipe uses Yamasa Shoyu to add more of a Japanese taste as well as grapefruit to bring refreshing flavors to the white-meat fish. The brisk texture and the mild flavors of the "mitsuba" match well with the harmonious Yamasa Reduced Sodium Shoyu. You can also garnish with "myoga" (Japanese ginger) and cilantro, to your taste.
