- *3 Using those cutter is only for decoration purpose. If you don't have one and, just slice it thinly.
- *4 You can either cook it in oven, or grill like I did in the photo indicate in the post above.
- *5 Naruto is optional. If you have them, it add some colour and make it prettier.
- *6 Preferbully Usukuchi if you can access
- *7 If you can not access to sake, you can omit or substitute with Chinese wine or dry sherry
- *8 Komatsuna can be substituted by a bunch of spinach.
