¼ cup Water**
2 tablespoons Fresh ginger,minced
2 Apples,medium-sized

1. Cut meat into ⅛" thick slices 6-7" long. In a heavy plastic food bag (about 1 quart), combine miso, syrup, sake, ginger, and pork; mix well. Seal shut and chill for at least 1 hour or up until the next day.

2. Core apples; cut into ½" wedges. Moisten with lemon juice to preserve color.

3. Thread a thin skewer through the end of a pork slice, then a piece of onion and a piece of apple. Weave skewer through meat slice again and repeat process, dividing ingredients among 4-8 skewers. If made ahead, cover and shill up to 3 hours. 4. Lay skewers on grill 4-6" above a solid bed of medium-coals (you can hold you hand at grill level for only 4-5 seconds). Baste with marinade and turn often until meat is no longer pink in center (cut to test), about 10 minutes.
