Tuna Tartare with Sesame

Don’t shy away from preparing raw fish. Go to a fish market that carries sushi-grade tuna and work quickly when you are cutting the fish, and this dish will be a success. The Asian flavors of ginger, soy, chili and lime juice highlight the clean, silky taste of the tuna, and a scattering of sesame seeds delivers a nice crunch.
