Cooking Steps

  1. 1

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, grated garlic, grated ginger, and wasabi, and mix well.

    Advice : If you are concerned about the alcohol in the mirin, heat it in a microwave-safe container for 15 seconds before mixing to mellow the flavor.

    Ingredients
    Soy sauce slightly over 1 tbsp
    Mirin slightly under 2 tsp
    Sesame oil slightly under 2 tsp
    Grated garlic approx. 1/3 tsp
    Grated ginger approx. 1/3 tsp
    Wasabi paste approx. 1/3 tsp
  2. 2

    Cut the albacore tuna into 1cm thick slices or into easy-to-eat cubes.

    Advice : Thoroughly wiping the surface moisture with a paper towel before cutting is key to reducing fishy odors and helping the sauce soak in.

    Ingredients
    Albacore Tuna (Sashimi block) 155g
  3. 3

    Place the tuna in the bowl with the sauce and toss until well coated. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for about 10–15 minutes.

    Advice : Gently tossing the tuna halfway through ensures that even a small 155g portion is evenly marinated.

    Marinate the tuna 15 min

  4. 4

    Place the rice in a bowl and spread shredded nori over it. Arrange the marinated tuna neatly on top.

    Advice : If you have shiso leaves, tearing them up and placing them with the nori adds a wonderful aromatic layer.

    Ingredients
    Warm rice 250g
    Shredded nori seaweed as needed
  5. 5

    Top with chopped green onions and white toasted sesame seeds to finish. Pour any remaining sauce from the bowl over the top if desired.

    Advice : Adding an egg yolk in the center creates a creamy, rich texture that makes up for the lack of avocado, resulting in a luxurious finish.

    Ingredients
    Chopped green onions as needed
    White toasted sesame seeds 1/2 tsp
