MISO-GLAZED TUNA KEBABS
A spin on Nobu's famous miso-glazed black cod, these tuna kebabs are uncommonly satisfying-like umami on a stick. Shiro miso-aided and abetted by mirin and lush mayonnaise-asserts itself beautifully against the meaty tuna. The sugar in the marinade caramelizes over the hot grill, giving the quickly cooked tuna some tantalizingly crisp edges.
