Part 2/7:
Starting with vegetables, the creator selects yellow squash, zucchini, and white onion. For the squash, they trim the ends, halve it, and slice it into half-inch pieces, ensuring that the thickness will result in tender insides with crispy exteriors. Similarly, the zucchini undergoes the same treatment, and the onion is sliced following its natural fibers to enhance its flavor during cooking.
By encouraging the inclusion of other vegetables—like carrots—the creator invites readers to personalize their hibachi experience, reinforcing that it’s a personal journey with food, rather than a series of strict guidelines.
