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

Bachan!
We want to see your real face... hehe. Pool!!?? I can hardly believe this. It's hard to imagine someone who can cook so well can also play pool... wow...

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
