Preparation

Step 1

1. Soak skewers in water at least 30 minutes.

2. Combine 1 tablespoon each soy sauce, mirin, and sake in a medium bowl. Add beef, tossing to coat. Let stand 30 to 90 minutes.

3. Combine remaining 3 tablespoons each soy sauce and mirin, remaining 1 tablespoon sake, and sugar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Simmer 5 to 8 minutes or until glaze is slightly syrupy. Set aside.
