INSTRUCTIONS
Available at Asian Markets, well-stocked grocery stores and some
health food markets. (Note: In place of wasabi, you could use an
equal amount of powdered dry mustard) In a shallow glass dish,
combine 1 T of the soy sauce and 1 t of the oil. Add the tuna and coat
well. Refrigerate for about 15 minutes, turning fish twice. Light
grill or preheat broiler. In small bowl, mix wasabi powder with 4 t
of hot water. Cover and set aside for 5 minutes. In another bowl,
stir 2 T of warm water into the tahini. Stir in the wasabi paste,
vinegar, mustard, sugar, garlic and the remaining 2 t soy sauce and 4
t oil. Season with salt and pepper. Season the tuna with salt and
pepper; grill or broil until crusty on the outside and rare within,
about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a plate to rest for a
few minutes, then slice it against the grain 1/3 inch thick. In large
bowl, toss the alfalfa sprouts with the enoki mushrooms and all but 2
T of the dressing. Scatter spinach leaves on 4 large plates and
arrange tuna on top. Drizzle on the remaining 2 T dressing. Mound
the sprout salad on the tuna, scatter the pickled ginger on top and
serve. Reprinted from Food and Wine Magazine, July 1996. Posted to
