Recipe

Cooking tips

  • When preparing tuna at home, avoid fully thawing it—keeping the center slightly frozen ensures the flesh stays intact and doesn’t become mushy.
  • When slicing tuna sashimi, always cut across the grain to break up the tendons and preserve the meat’s natural tenderness and smooth texture.
  • The tough tendon part of the belly fat is hard to chew when raw, but when torched separately, the fat melts, enhancing its richness and softness.
  • When shaping sushi rice, lightly wet your hands with water to prevent the grains from sticking and make molding easier.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a premium-quality, restaurant-style tuna course at home at a reasonable price.
  • Home cooks seeking expert tips to completely eliminate the fishy odor from frozen tuna and properly thaw and prepare it.
  • Cooking enthusiasts aiming to master a diverse, multi-course meal using just one ingredient—sashimi, sushi, and donburi—all from the same tuna block.
