Ingredients to make Spicy Tuna Tartare:
- 200 grams of tuna belly
- 2 tablespoons old mustard
- 1 pinch of Salt and Pepper
- 3 tablespoons of soy sauce
- Tabasco sauce
How to make Spicy Tuna Tartare:
- To make our tuna tartare, the first thing you should do is finely cut the tuna. As you can see, I have two fillets that I have cut with the help of a fairly sharp knife.
- The cut in this type of recipe is a controversial issue since some people prefer slightly large pieces and others who believe that very fine cuts are best. I prefer to cut the meat very small, almost as if it were ground meat but not shredded but cut at the point of a knife.
- You can use fresh tuna or frozen tuna, the important thing is that it is of quality and that it does not have skin or fat.
- Now we have to marinate the tuna, then place the fish in a bowl and add all the ingredients, only add about 4 drops of hot sauce. Stir everything until both sauces are integrated, check the seasoning and correct if necessary by adding a little more of any ingredient.
- Reserve this in the fridge for half an hour so that the tuna absorbs all the flavor of the marinade.
- In these recipes the measurements do not have to be exact, so modify them to taste if you prefer one flavor to predominate over another.
- After this time, serve the spicy tuna tartare in a bowl or directly on crackers. When you place each serving, be sure to add a drop of sauce on each toast or cookie, the flavor will be extraordinary!
