I first had a less than fully cooked seared tuna on a trip to one of Wolfgang Pucks restaurants in 1984. Just being done with college, I wanted to visit his famous restaurant on Main in Los Angeles. The first thing I noticed was the beautiful large kitchen and high class chef doing some cool things. I ordered the yellowfin tuna with the sea urchin sauce. This particular tuna that I ordered was very red and looked very rare. It had a dark red flesh with a seared exterior. Much to my concern the tuna looked very much like it was totally raw. I tried it anyway and was pleasantly surprised at its deep red flesh coloration. When I asked about this remarkable flavor, I was engaged by the chef working in front of me. He informed me that the larger yellowfin tuna fish typically has a higher fat content than smaller fish, and this is a desirable attribute for raw fish products, as well as for grilling, pan seared tuna, preparing spicy tuna such as wasabi tuna. I asked him the difference between sashimi and sushi. He started to explain to me that Yellowfin tuna is often prepared totally rare in many restaurants. Sashimi is often inaccurately called sushi which refers to the seasoned rice dish. With its mild flavor and firm texture, yellowfin tuna and/or Ahi tuna adapts well on many different levels. I found a site on the web, www.efoodschool.com which offers a great sashimi steak tuna for a reasonable price. I ordered a box of ten steaks which arrived in 2 days. I opted for grilled tuna on the first day. I grilled them briefly in an attempt to retain the center rare to raw. The grill still managed to cook the tunas red center a lot more than I expected it too. I prefered the second attempt better which was to pan sear in a skillet. This browned the outside nicely without cooking the center as much as grilling did. Buying this tuna steak from www.efoodschool.com is great value and I recommend that anybody who wants to eat great tuna should definitely give it a try.
