Sesame Seed Tuna with Ginger Sauce.
For today's menu, I have taken a nice fresh piece of tuna, seasoned it sea salt and pepper, then covered the whole piece with brown and black sesame seeds.
Pour some sesame seed oil on the pan, and place the tuna, grilling each side for about 5-8 minutes. You want to get it nice and medium inside, so basically the outside will be cooked and the inside is basically sashimi. Then, place tuna on plate gently.
Now, time for the ginger sauce. Dice and mince garlic and ginger, getting a tablespoon for each. place into a bowl and add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, two tablespoons of vinegar/ or white wine vinegar, and about 3 tablespoons of sesame seed oil, for flavor and texture. Then you want to add about half a tablespoon of grounded red pepper seeds, then wisk. You want the sauce to be at room temperature for a nice molasses like texture. Then, glaze ginger sauce on tuna and around plate.
