Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna

    Using a sharp knife, slice the fresh tuna into thin sashimi-style pieces, about 1/4 inch thick. Arrange them neatly on a chilled plate.

  2. 2

    Make the Karashi Su Miso Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the karashi su miso with a bit of water to achieve a smooth, pourable consistency. Adjust to taste.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Blood Orange

    Peel the blood orange and segment it, removing any seeds. Cut the segments into smaller pieces if desired.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Pickled Papaya

    If not already sliced, cut the pickled papaya into thin strips or small cubes.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    Drizzle the karashi su miso sauce over the sliced tuna. Scatter the blood orange segments and pickled papaya around the tuna on the plate.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle sea salt over the dish to enhance flavors. Garnish with microgreens or edible flowers for an elegant touch. Serve immediately.
