Mermaid Barbie Tuna Tartare Recipes

Steps:

• Keeping the tuna very cold, toss gently with the scallion, cucumber and a bit of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. In another bowl whisk the soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ginger, garlic and Ginger Oil until well blended. Add to the fish mixture and toss to dress well.
• Cut the nori into 1 1/2-inch rounds and mound the tartare mixture by the teaspoonful onto the nori rounds. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve immediately. Alternatively it can be served on an ice cold plate lined with lettuce leaves and garnished with marinated seaweed and sesame seeds, as an appetizer.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, soy sauce, sriracha, garlic and ginger. Add the tuna to the sauce and gently stir to coat. Adjust seasonings.
• To serve, top each endive leaf with about 1 tablespoon of the crudo, some Pickled Radishes and a sprinkle of chives. Serve immediately.
• In a glass measuring cup, add the hot water, vinegar, sugar, salt, honey and some pepper. Stir until the sugar and salt dissolve. Add the radishes to a glass jar and pour the pickling liquid over them. Set aside to pickle for 1 hour. After 1 hour, cover the jar and refrigerate.

Steps:

• With a heavy sharp knife, chop tuna into very small slices. In a mixing bowl, combine tuna, chives, capers, shallots, lemon juice, oil, salt and freshly ground pepper and chill for 1 hour. Fill demitasse spoons with mixture and serve.

Steps:

• Cut the tuna into 1/4-inch dice and place it in a very large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, wasabi, soy sauce, hot red pepper sauce, salt, and pepper. Pour over the tuna, add the scallions and jalapeno, and mix well. Cut the avocados in half, remove the seed, and peel. Cut the avocados into 1/4-inch dice. Carefully mix the avocado into the tuna mixture. Add the toasted sesame seeds, if using, and season to taste. Allow the mixture to sit in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour for the flavors to blend. Serve on crackers.
