Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Using a sharp knife, cut the tuna fish into small bite-sized cubes (approximately 1-inch cubes) and place them into a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine the soy sauce, finely chopped green onion, thinly sliced onion, and sesame oil. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Pour the marinade over the cubed tuna in the mixing bowl. Gently toss the tuna to ensure each piece is well coated with the marinade.
- Add the sesame butter into the bowl with the marinated tuna. Carefully mix it into the tuna until evenly distributed, giving the poke a creamy texture.
- Add a dash of salt to taste, and gently mix once more to incorporate the seasoning.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Once chilled, serve the poke over a bed of steamed rice, salad greens, or as desired. You can also add additional toppings like avocado, seaweed, or sesame seeds to enhance the dish.
Tips:
- Use the freshest tuna possible to ensure the best flavor and texture.
- Chill the tuna before dicing; cold tuna is easier to cut and maintain its shape.
- Cut the tuna into uniform pieces to ensure even marinading and a balanced bite.
- Let the tuna marinate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve immediately after marination to enjoy the freshest taste.
