5. Crispy Buckwheat Tuile
Ingredients:
- 50g buckwheat flour
- 20g butter
- 10g honey
- Pinch of sea salt
Method:
- Mix ingredients into a thin batter, spread on a Silpat, and bake at 160°C until golden.

Plating & Presentation:
- Base Layer: Smear the black garlic purée in a fluid motion across a custom ceramic plate (glazed with volcanic ash for texture).
- Protein: Place a quenelle of the Wagyu tartare slightly off-center.
- Uni Mousse: Position the uni sphere adjacent to the tartare, creating a visual dialogue between land and sea.
- Consommé: Pour the smoked dashi tableside from a heated porcelain pitcher, allowing it to pool around the components.
- Garnishes: Dust with leek ash, place the buckwheat tuile at an angle, and add microgreens for freshness.
- Final Touch: Use a pipette to add dots of sea foam around the plate.
Sourcing Notes:
- Hokkaido Uni: Must be sourced from a trusted supplier (e.g., Kyoto Fish Market) for peak freshness.
- Fermented Barley Miso: Can be made in-house or sourced from Mitsua Foods.
