Buri Teriyaki 鰤の照り焼き
Buri Teriyaki features a yellowtail fillet marinated briefly with salt, then seared in butter to develop a brown crust. The fish is coated with teriyaki sauce and cooked until the sauce reduces to a shiny glaze. It is served with shiso leaf and garnished with a pickled amzu radish, which is prepared by slicing and soaking radish in a vinegar-sugar-salt mixture to develop a tangy flavor and soften its texture.

Notes
- Salt the yellowtail fillet and allow it to rest for about 15 minutes to draw out excess moisture before cooking.
- Pat the fish dry thoroughly after salting to ensure proper browning during frying.
- Reduce the teriyaki sauce over medium-high heat until it thickens and becomes shiny, coating the fish evenly.
