I saw Justin make this on Food Network Star, and I HAD to try them. I didn't have any nori or bonito flakes, so I omitted those, and I was in a hurry so I didn't have time to make the duck. Also, I was trying to make the dish healthier, so I decided not to roll the dates in the sugar or use any salt and I had just run out of citric acid. BUT WOW this dish was tasty, super easy to make, and I would highly recommend trying it for yourself!
