Prepare the Albacore
Slice the local albacore tuna into thin sashimi-style pieces and set aside in the refrigerator while you prepare the other ingredients.

Using a vegetable peeler, thinly slice the serpent cucumbers into ribbons. You can also cut them into thin rounds if preferred.
3
Make the Yogurt Sauce
In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with lemon juice, sea salt, and a drizzle of olive oil until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
4
Assemble the Dish
On a serving plate, artfully arrange the sliced albacore tuna. Top with the serpent cucumber ribbons. Drizzle the yogurt sauce over the top, then garnish with Britton shiso leaves and microgreens if using.
