These Sesame Ginger Tuna Steaks were better than I even anticipated! Cooked the wild caught Tuna Steaks sous vide style, which is one of my new favorite kitchen toys. I highly recommend it as you cant overcook or burn your food, which is important if you get distracted or busy, it just hangs out at the perfect temp until you get it. Marinating then cooking is key here, it allows for the most flavor. Tuna can get dry pretty quick if over cooked, so unless I am eating Ahi Tuna or sushi, this is my go to method for sure. The flavors her are light, bright, clean and so yummy. Perfect for summer time porch eating!
