3 cups pineapple juice
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons lime juice
1 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
2 pounds fresh tuna steaks, finely chopped
2 teaspoons chipotle pepper puree
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 green onions, thinly sliced
Salt and freshly ground pepper
8 rolls
Watercress
Green Chile-Pickle Relish, recipe follows
3 poblano chiles, grilled, peeled, seeded and finely diced
3 dill pickles, finely diced

3 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro leaves
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Combine the pineapple juice, vinegar, ginger, soy sauce and brown sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a boil.
