Steps:
- 1. To blanch the garlic, peel the cloves and place in 1 cup of boiling water. Steep for 20-30 minutes or until cool enough to handle. Mince.
- 2. Partially thaw tuna if frozen. Remove any skin, bones, or silver skin (fascia). Optionally, remove very dark portions of the meat or distribute it throughout the mixture when chopping.
- 3. Coarsely mince the tuna with a large knife or cleaver or by pulsing gently in the food processor. Do not grind into a paste. Reserve some texture or the patties will be too dense.
- 4. Fold together the tuna, garlic, thyme, mayonnaise, soy sauce, black pepper and half (1/3 cup) the bread crumbs until all ingredients are well distributed.
- 5. Form the mixture into a ball, wrap with plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes to allow bread crumbs to hydrate and flavors to meld.
- 6. Quarter the mixture and form four equal patties, approximately 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. Put the other half of the bread crumbs in a shallow bowl and dip each burger in the crumbs to thinly coat on both sides and edges.
- 7. Heat a skillet in a 400F oven. Coat the skillet with oil, and bake the patties 10 minutes, turning once (5 minutes per side). Serve hot.
