Method

Hayato Menu

  1. 1

    Make citrus glaze

    In a small bowl whisk together yuzu juice, soy sauce, and mirin until evenly combined and slightly bright.

  2. 2

    Infuse roe with glaze

    Gently fold the ikura into the citrus glaze until each bead is lightly coated; let rest 5–7 minutes to allow the flavors to perfume the roe.

  3. 3

    Add zest

    Stir in the yuzu zest to distribute aroma and brightness through the glaze.

  4. 4

    Plate portions

    Using a small spoon or onto tasting spoons, portion the ikura onto each serving dish.

  5. 5

    Finish and garnish

    Drizzle a few drops of the glaze over each portion to glaze lightly. Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds and chives or microgreens as a delicate garnish.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately to enjoy the pop of the roe with the yuzu aroma; pair with crisp crackers, cucumber rounds, or delicate blini if desired.
