Instructions

  1. Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel and season lightly with a pinch of salt.

  2. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the neutral oil.

  3. Sear the scallops for about 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.

  4. In a small saucepan, combine the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, mirin, and sugar. Simmer gently for 1–2 minutes until slightly thickened.

  5. Arrange the seared scallops on a serving plate.

  6. Carefully place one piece of fresh uni atop each scallop.

  7. Drizzle the warm teriyaki glaze generously over the scallops and uni.

  8. Garnish each with a small dollop of fresh wasabi.

  9. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • Use the freshest uni and scallops available for the best flavor and texture.

  • Adjust the sweetness of the glaze by adding more or less sugar to taste.

  • For an even more luxurious presentation, serve on a bed of microgreens or edible flowers.
