Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna

    In a medium bowl, combine the diced Bigeye tuna and crushed green peppercorns. Mix gently to avoid breaking the tuna.

    In a separate small bowl, whisk together the minced ginger, lime juice, Dijon mustard, sesame oil, and salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour the marinade over the tuna mixture and gently fold together until the tuna is evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Chill

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tartare chilled with sesame lavash on the side for scooping.
