Ingredients

  • 1 lb sashimi grade Ahi Tuna only the freshest cut
  • 1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 3 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 pinch Hawaiian Salt or Sea Salt I like to use coarse grounded sea salt
  • 1/4 cup very thin sliced Maui, Oso, or Sweet Onion variety use a mandolin for best results and save time
  • 3 tbsps green scallions cut very thinly
  • 2 tsp minced Thai or Fresno chilies (optional) or use Asian Sichuan red pepper flakes
  • 2 tsp black and white sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp Ogo Seaweed or Seaweed snack cut up thinly as garnish

Instructions

  • Take your Ahi Tuna and cut into cubes. Cut lengthwise into many strips, then across for cube like pieces.
    Use a very sharp knife as to not tear your Ahi Tuna. Small as a dime is nice so the sauce can season each piece well.
  • Place in mixing bowl.
  • Add soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, thin sliced onions and scallions. Sprinkle the sesame seeds and the chilies.
  • Gently fold and mix everything well.
    All pieces should be touched with the sauce and should not be over sauced, as so to still highlight the delicate flavors of the Ahi tuna.
  • Transfer to serving bowl and top with sprinkled seaweed.
  • Enjoy!
