Tuna and Marinade

Toppings and Sauce

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Tuna

    In a bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Add the wild caught tuna and marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Cook the Grains

    In a saucepan, combine the regenerative quinoa brown rice blend and water or vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the grains are cooked and fluffy.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet over medium-high heat, add a splash of oil and sauté the sliced mushrooms and julienned carrots until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

Cooking the Tuna

  1. 4

    Sear the Tuna

    Remove the tuna from the marinade and sear it in a hot skillet for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until the outside is browned but the inside remains rare. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, layer the quinoa brown rice blend, sautéed vegetables, and sliced seared tuna. Drizzle with tataki sauce and top with chopped baru nuts and diced pineapple.
