Thanks for tuna tip
We had tuna steaks tonight, and I tried the advice several folk had
offered about marinating it in EVOO beforehand. In this case, I used my flat vacuum marinading dish, pouring in about 4 tbsp EVOO, a couple tsp of Worcestershire, 1/2 tsp of S&P each and about 2 tbsp of crushed pickled ginger, along with the juice that was on it. The tuna steaks were covered liberally with the mix and put under vacuum about 10:00a today. I gave them a good shake to redistribute the liquid/oil about 3:00p, then released the vacuum and pulled it again under the impression that the air pressure would drive in more liquid to the meat. It must have worked, because the steaks were very moist and had a great ginger flavor as well. I sampled an inside piece and it too had the flavor, so I know that the juice penetrated. Again, thanks for the tip- I now have a new "favorite" way to do tuna steaks. -- Nonny Nonnymus A penny saved is obviously a government oversight. |

Basically I'm eating seared Sashimi. I think Worcestershire would fight with the taste of the tuna too much. Kent Kent |
