Fried Wonton Tacos, Yellowtail Sashimi and Roasted Shishito Peppers

Usually I fry these wonton wrappers to make spicy tuna tostadas but I’ve always wanted to use them to make tacos. I’ve never seen wonton wrappers used like this before but they make perfect bite size hard tacos.

Cilantro and onion for the beef tongue

And scallions for the sashimi and Wagyu beef

Yakiniku

Yakiniku in Japanese means “grilled meat” or in it’s broadest sense, refers to grilled meat dishes.  Last night we had Wagyu beef, Berkshire pork sausages and thinly sliced beef tongue. Any Asian male will tell you grilled meat and rice is in the same category as sex, cars and alcohol.

Thinly sliced beef tongue is one of my favorites…
