Did one of our favorites today and added Shrimp which comes out superb with the sauce. Here's how I did them.

All ready to go

Lot's of garlic diced up and smashed, scallions sliced thin and normally would use fresh ginger but the marts had none so used powdered ginger. If you do use it bare in mind it is much stronger and I only used a teaspoon split for both marinades.

Made up two batches, 1 cup Soy, 1/4 cup Mirin, 1/4 cup Sake, Scallion and Garlic. One batch is used as a marinade and the other is used as a basting sauce during the cook, this batch has 1/4 cup of sugar added and is reduced on the stove by about half. Disregard that little cup.

Veggies ready for the skewers, the traditional Japanese versions use Radish and Scallion a lot, disregard that full little cup

Send it over here & I'll dispose of it correctly. ;)

Great job as always mate. :blackkettle:
 
Great Yakitori and shrimp Bill! Barb and I use that same recipe but have never added the shrimp, going to try that. Tried Sake once but I think I'd prefer prefer jet fuel shooters over Sake anytime:p.
 
Top notch cook right there my friend! I need to bust out some yak juice, but mine never come close to yours.
