According to my Japanese dictionary, sashimi is fresh meat eaten raw, thinly cut, with soy sauce (or other). It is mostly seafood, but not only. There is basashi (sashimi of horse meat) and I think I saw once beef carpaccio referred to as sashimi too.
Could raw Dutch herring be considered a form of sashimi? It's by far my favorite raw fish.
The way it is served is different, but otherwise why not?
What I wonder about with the green herring is what happeed to the bones. When I get fresh herring in that size range, it has forked bones like its larger relative, the American Shad.
Are North Sea herring less bony. or do they fillet them in some way that avoids the bones?

The bones are removed. After all they've had many centuries to learn the art 🙂
