<Notes>
- Karashi mustard is pretty spicy and has quite a kick on your nostrils. If unsure, use less than specified and ascertain your tolerance.
- Karashi soy sauce is added immediately before serving in order to prevent the dish from taking on a dark tint. If this is not a concern, go ahead and add it ahead of time.
