Seared Wagyu Nigiri with Chili Dot is all about balance between cool fish and warm, lightly seasoned rice. Marbled beef needs only a few seconds of heat; the fat softens and the center stays rosy. A kitchen torch gives aburi-style char in seconds; hold it a few inches away and keep it moving. A small dish of pickled ginger between bites keeps the palate fresh.
