Japanese Grilled Tuna

"This Japanese-inspired tuna should be grilled very rare for the best flavour. The glaze keeps for two weeks refrigerated, but if it becomes too thick, thin down with a little water before using. Serve with rice and a cucumber salad. To crack peppercorns, place in a plastic bag and bash with rolling pin or back of a pot. Prep time includes marinating time. From Food and Drink."

  1. Outstanding recipe which was easy prep and enjoyed by family. We love Japanese seafood dishes and this one will be filed with our Salmon dishes.
     
  2. I found a really good price on Tuna steaks, $5.99 a pound! So I was looking for a new recipe to try. This was the most flavorful recipe I have found. The wasibi just added the right amount of kick. Thanks Leslie for sharing, I went out and bought more Tuna while it was on special so I could make it again!
