Grilled Yellowtail


Grilled Yellowtail (Buri no Shio-yaki)

Just to make some people envious. ;)
This is grilled yellowtail. No, not teriyaki-sauce version. Just lightly salted and grilled.
It was really good with grated daikon, a squeeze of sucachi and a little bit of soy sauce.

BTW, if you’re interested in how I looked 10 years ago, here’s a photo.

The picture looks so vivid. I can actually smell grilled yellowtail when I close my eyes. Mmm.

It actually smelled quite a bit in my kitchen.

OK. Sudachi is a kind of citrus fruit. A very good explanation is http://gohan.kaywa.com/default/sudachi_-_3721827224.html here and photos are http://www.hana300.com/sudach.html here. They are usually used when still green, but I bought 2 of them a while ago and used only one for the horoku-yaki the other day. This one was the leftover, and it turned yellow ;P It definitely tastes better when green.

Smoked yellowtail? I’ve never tried it but sounds really tasty. Oh, and avocados, bread and wine… I would want to work there!!
So nice to hear that you’re coming to Japan. Yeah, don’t miss anything. Try everything that you’re interested in! :D

Hi glutton rabbit,
Oh, why don't cooking and shooting pool go together? They both need a table to work on.
About my face:
I gotta hide it because it looks too good that it would make my food photos look less impressive. ;P
