Ginkagami has a silvery body and a very lateral flattened body. There are small black spots on the upper side of the body. The total length is 25-30 cm. The Ginkagami family has a very long history and is also called a \u201cliving fossil\u201d because it has hardly changed its appearance since 60 million years ago and is still alive today. It is a rare fish, with only one family, one genus, and one species in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The dark red meat (Chiai) is large and slightly reddish, but the flesh is clear and beautiful. Its flavor is similar to that of the horse mackerel. However, it is not suitable for sushi toppings because of its flat body and fairly low yield. It should be made into sashimi, grilled with salt, fried, or dried overnight.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Common name: Moonfish, Razor moonfish, Razor trevally Japanese name: Ginkagami (\u9280\u93e1) Chinese common name: \u773c\u7736\u9c7c\u3001\u773c\u955c\u9c7c\u3001\u76ae\u5200\u9c7c Korean common name: \ubc30\ubd88\ub69d\uce58 French common name: Lunero Spanish common name: Lunero Portuguese common name: Peixe-lua, Peixe-roda Scientific name: Mene maculata (Bloch &amp; Schneider, 1801) Nigiri sushi detail: Moonfish (Ginkagami) Nigiri sushi The appearance of Moonfish (Ginkagami) nigiriFeature: Moonfish (Ginkagami) is widely distributed south of Aomori Prefecture on the Sea of Japan side, south of Ibaraki Prefecture on the Pacific side, and in the warm waters of the Indo-West Pacific.
