10 Great Places to Try Buri Right Now
10 top chefs in New York City and Los Angeles are serving a specially crafted Buri dish on their menus.
Buri may very well be the National fish of Japan, which has been loved by Japanese people since ancient times. This versatile juicy and full-of-umami fish is often served as crudo, sushi, or sashimi, but Buri is getting its due when 10 top chefs (seven in New York City and three in Los Angeles) each serve a specially crafted Buri dish during JFOODO's month-long Buri promotion from Jan. 10 - Feb. 6. This special promotion is designed to cast a wide net on the fish, which is also known as Japanese Hamachi, Yellowtail, or Amberjack.
Both wild and farmed Buri are extremely popular in Japan. Farmed Buri is delicious all year round, but wild Buri is seasonable in the colder months. Japanese Buri is rich in nutritional value and contains abundant quantities of Omega-3 fatty acids, including DHA and EPA, which are important for brain and heart health. The chefs were asked to come up with a dish using Buri that reflected their cuisine to show that the fish can be adapted to cuisines other than Japanese. In the hands of these masters, Buri takes on personalities from France, America, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and Japan. It is showcased poached, grilled, steamed, sauteed, and raw, but every way the result is pure perfection. Diners will get to experience the bliss of Buri at the following participating restaurants.
