Uni Custard with Crispy Shallot & Charred Lemon Soil

Name: Uni Custard with Crispy Shallot & Charred Lemon Soil
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 14 min
Total time: 34 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 3.5 oz fresh uni (sea urchin); 1 cup dashi stock; 2 egg yolks; 1 tbsp mirin; ½ tsp salt; 2 shallots (thinly sliced into rings); 1 lemon (halved); 2 tbsp grapeseed oil (for frying); 2 tbsp crème fraîche; ½ tsp wasabi powder; pinch fleur de sel; 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds; 1 sheet nori (optional, for plating)

A delicate Japanese-inspired first course: uni (sea urchin roe) folded into silken dashi custard, set barely, and crowned with crispy fried shallot strings, crumbled charred lemon powder, and a whisper of wasabi cream. The soft mousse gives way to umami punch and bright citrus burn on the palate.
