Comments (0) Best Use of Uni - 2011
Yuba
Although it doesn't include any of the tofu-skin namesake, we're still smitten with the risotto-style uni rice at East Village Japanese newcomer Yuba. Several bright-orange California sea urchins perch atop a small mound of sweet Japanese rice that has been cooked in broth, like Italian risotto. Mix it all together so that each bite bursts with pure seaside flavor that spans from the Pacific to the Adriatic and back. 105 East 9th Street, 212-777-8188, yubanyc.com (10003)
