Method:
Cut thin slices of cucumber - about 1/8" or less in thickness and place in a bowl of cold water for about ½ an hour. The slices of cucumber will now have curled up on the edges creating little 'bowls'.
Skin the fish or get you fishmonger to do it for you.
Lay the block of fish with what would have been the skin side down. Cutting across the grain cut fine slices of the fish (~1/8")
Spread a tiny dab of wasabi in each cucumber 'bowl', place a slice of salmon on it, place a small amount of sushi gari on top and serve.
