Japanese-style appetizer

For the wasabi sauce, combine the ingredients and season to taste. In a bowl, toss the radish slices with the soy sauce and let stand for 5 minutes. Then arrange on 4 plates. Bring the ginger, vinegar, sugar, and 2 tablespoons of water to a boil and cook until the liquid has almost evaporated. Let cool. Place the salmon slices on the radish, garnish with chili strips and ginger sticks. Serve drizzled with the wasabi sauce. A young sake goes well with this dish.
