Tuna Tartare

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Tuna

Using a sharp knife, finely dice the fresh sushi-grade tuna into small cubes, about 1/4 inch in size. Place the diced tuna in a mixing bowl.

2

Prepare the Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, miso paste, and lime juice until well combined.

3

Mix the Tuna

Pour the prepared dressing over the diced tuna. Add the sesame seeds, chopped chives or scallions, salt, and black pepper. Gently mix everything together until the tuna is well coated.

4

Prepare the Avocado

Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Dice the avocado into small cubes similar in size to the tuna.

5

Assemble the Dish

On a serving plate, create a bed of the diced avocado. Top with the tuna tartare mixture. Optionally, you can garnish with extra sesame seeds or chives.
