…frozen ones, cheaper for my experiment, from Trader Joe’s. They are thawing now, and I plan to rub with a touch of oil and coat with a seaweed/sesame Japanese spice garnish and then cook them in a hot cast iron skillet. Sauce for the tuna will be of mirin, soy sauce, rice vinegar, a wee bit of cornstarch, and some ginger extract. Chopped scallions too.

Serving with some jasmine rice, sautéed shiitake mushrooms and broccoli, and a little salad of smashed cucumbers and avocado.

Fingers crossed…really don’t want to overcook the tuna! 🤞


Edit to add: my wife had to work really late unexpectedly, so I’ll have to make this for lunch tomorrow
