★ Notes★
● The boiling sake and boiling mirin should be completely boiled down.
● The smoking should be done for about five minutes.
 (If cooked too much, the beef will become hard.)
● Grind the walnuts coarsely. (This is to cherish the texture of the walnuts.)
● The aroma of the mushrooms symbolizes autumn, so do not over-sauté the king trumpet mushrooms.
