Steps:
- Place shoyu, brown and white sugars, ginger, sherry, oil, green onions, garlic, white pepper and 3/4 gallon water in a large pot and bring to a rolling boil. Let cool, then strain out the solids so you are left with just teriyaki sauce. Place the ahi in a large bowl and cover with the teriyaki marinade (save remaining marinade for another use). Let marinade, refrigerated, 4 to 6 hours.
- Preheat a grill for cooking at medium-high heat. Oil tuna and sprinkle with salt and pepper, then grill to desired doneness, 2 1/2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
SEARED HAWAIIAN AHI WITH WILD RICE AND BASMATI RICE IN A SHIITAKE TERIYAKI BEURRE BLANC
Steps:
- Season the Ahi with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat. Sear the Ahi quickly until medium rare, or to your liking, about one minute on each side.
- Set the Ahi aside and cook mushrooms in the same pan. Deglaze with sherry and reduce to medium heat. Add the scallions, teriyaki glaze, and buerre blanc to the pan and heat until combined and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
- In another saute pan, heat the remaining olive oil and add the diced vegetables. Cook for 1 minute. Add the wild and basmati rice and season with salt and pepper to taste. When the vegetables are cooked and the rice is warm, pour the Japanese vinaigrette over the rice mixture.
- Place 5 ounces of the rice mixture in the center of each plate. Pour two to three ounces of the Teriyaki buerre blanc mixture on 1/2 of the plate. Slice a 5-ounce portion of the Ahi into strips and fan over the rice and sauce. Garnish with scallions.
- Combine the soy sauce, brown and white sugars, garlic, ginger, Japanese vinegar, and sake, and in a heavy-bottomed saucepot. Bring to a boil (the sauce will flame as the alcohol burns off). Dissolve the arrowroot in the water. Reduce the sauce to a hard simmer and add the arrowroot mixture. Simmer hard for 5 minutes more.
- Beurre Blanc: Combine the wine, shallots, and vinegar in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Continue boiling until 1 tablespoon of liquid remains. Lower the heat and whisk in the butter, piece by piece. When the butter is completely incorporated, remove from heat and salt to taste.
- Japanese Vinaigrette: Combine first 5 ingredients in a stainless steel mixing bowl until blended. Using a wire whisk, pour in sugar and emulsify.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality tuna: Look for sushi-grade or sashimi-grade tuna for the best flavor and texture.
- Slice the tuna against the grain: This will help to create tender, melt-in-your-mouth pieces of tuna.
- Marinate the tuna in teriyaki sauce: This will help to infuse the tuna with flavor and keep it moist during cooking.
- Cook the tuna over high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the tuna while keeping the inside rare and tender.
- Serve the tuna with your favorite sides: Some popular options include rice, vegetables, and salad.

Whether you're grilling, pan-searing, or baking your tuna, be sure to follow the tips above to ensure that you end up with a perfectly cooked and flavorful meal.
