Nobus Sashimi Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Season tuna all over with salt and pepper. Heat a nonstick skillet to high. Sear all 4 sides of fillet until cooked 1/4 inch on each side, 15 to 30 seconds each side. Transfer to a bowl of ice water and let cool; pat dry. Transfer to a cutting board and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices.
• Slice carrot, zucchini, and beet into thin ribbons with a vegetable peeler. Toss with lettuce and scallion. Pour 1/4 cup dressing on a large lunch plate and top with a mound of lettuce mixture. Place tuna slices around lettuce mixture; serve.

Steps:

• Grate the zest of 1 orange and the lime into a large bowl. Squeeze 1 tablespoon of juice from the grated orange and 2 tablespoons of juice from the grated lime into the bowl (you may need a second lime to get the 2 tablespoons of juice). Whisk in the soy sauce and the oil. Set the dressing aside.
• Use a sharp knife to slice the rind and pith from the remaining oranges. Working over a mixing bowl, cut between the membranes to free the orange segments, letting them drop into the bowl. Pour any juice into a cup and reserve it for another use. Add the mâche, frisée, and cucumbers, if using, to the orange segments. Using a large sharp knife, cut the salmon into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Add the salmon to the bowl. Drizzle with the dressing, and toss gently to coat. Allow the flavors to meld for at least 2 minutes.
• Divide the salad among 4 serving plates. Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds, and serve.

Steps:

• In a small skillet over medium heat, cook sesame seeds until fragrant and golden. Remove to a small bowl.
• Arrange fish on a plate. Rub with garlic. Sprinkle ginger and chives over fish. Drizzle with soy sauce and lemon juice. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Heat olive and sesame oils in a small saucepan until they begin to smoke. Pour over fish; the hot oil will sear the fish as it makes contact.

Steps:

• Combine the onion, rice vinegar, water, granulated sugar, pinch of sea salt, mustard, ground black and ground black pepper in a bowl.
• Stir until the salt and mustard have dissolved.
• Add the grapeseed and sesame oils and soy sauce and mix well.

Steps:

• Prepare an ice bath. Using a Japanese mandoline, very thinly slice vegetables directly into ice bath. Let stand until vegetables begin to curl, about 15 minutes. Drain well.

Steps:

• Prepare an ice bath; set aside. Season tuna on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add tuna, and sear on both sides until the surface of the tuna becomes white, about 6 seconds per side. Plunge the tuna fillet into the ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain, and shake to remove excess water.
• Divide vegetables between 4 plates. Cut the tuna crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Roll each slice into a cylinder, and place them around the vegetables. Drizzle dressing between tuna rolls. Serve immediately.
