Tuna

 The first Tuna dish inspired by Shinya Tasaki's

 battle with Iron Chef Masahiko Kobe

             Tuna Steak Tartare with Crystal ’90 champagne

Chef Tasaki cut the top off of a bottle of champagne and

poured it into a pan, then he added water and salt to make a

marinade. He salt cured cucumber bits in a sauce of Sendai

miso. He soaked tuna in the marinade and then smoked it

over cherry and apple wood chips on a screen over a wok.

He minced the smoked tuna before serving.

Wooden Chef Recipe: Tuna Dip with Sauces

No problem, quick and simple. Drain and dump a 6 oz. can of albacore tuna in a bowl.

If you want to have the tuna keep its round shape, run a butter knife around the inside

of the can before you dump the tuna out. Serve with tortilla chips, wasabi sauce, and

Chinese mustard. OK, the kids won’t eat wasabi, give them salad mustard and green

ketchup. Wash it down with your favorite beer. The kids get their favorite pop.
