4. Wrap each piece of salmon around a piece of grapefruit and arrange on a serving dish.

5. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, yuzu juice and black pepper.

6. Place the cucumber spiral on the serving dish and arrange the grapefruit-wrapped salmon on top.

7. Garnish with scallion, wasabi and gari. Drizzle the sauce on top and serve.
