Sesame Ahi Tuna Recipe

Saku Block Tuna Loin 8oz (W.)

Black and White Sesame Seeds (50/50 blend)

Sesame Oil, blend

Creamy Wasabi Sauce, per batch recipe

Sesame Seaweed Salad

Pickled Ginger

Soy Sauce, in a ramekin

1. Coat the tuna evenly on all sides with the sesame seed blend. Set aside.

2. In a small sauté pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Sear the tuna evenly on all sides (approximately 30 seconds per side). Remove from the pan or reduce the heat and continue to cook slowly depending on desired temperature.

3. Stripe a large rectangle plate in a zig zag pattern lengthwise from corner to corner. Arrange the seaweed salad in a straight line through the center of the plate.

4. Slice the tuna into even 1/4" slices and shingle the tuna on top of the seaweed salad. Place the pickled ginger neatly in the center of the tuna. Wipe clean the edges of the plate and serve to the guest with the soy sauce (in a ramekin) on 1 corner of the plate.
