Living by the water has many perks one is to be a able to buy fresh seafood right off the boat.  Yesterday I bought sushi grade tuna and grilled it and served it over a salad topped with grilled  asparagus and tomatoes.  All grilled on the MAK 2 Star

Very nice

Great looking salad.  Gotta love good fresh tuna.

Did you sear the tuna, or fully cook / grill it?

For some reason, even though I enjoy sushi, seared tuna is not one of my favorites - fully cooked / grilled is one of my favorites.

There lots of types of tuna, personally I only eat yellowfin also known as Ahi. I like it dipped in a sauce that I make, coated with sesame seeds and seared in a very hot skillet for a minute or two. When done it appears to be raw but served with pickled ginger, some of my sauce and wasabi, there is nothing better. Growing up I fished a lot and always ate fish well done. There is a long story behind my conversion, but I won't bore you with it here.

Absolutely love fish……but in the middle of Kansas “fresh” is very hard to find.
When we venture to Wichita or Kansas City we will stop at a few places and it is much better there.

We moved to AZ in 2011 from the Seattle area, but we still get relatively fresh fish, mostly from Costco. In this day and age, the fish source is only hours away. The fish that we get here are only out of the water 3-4 hours longer than in Seattle.

That was the interesting about living and eating in Las Vegas.  Because of the Tons of Seafood the Resorts have flown in every day, you had good selections...even at Eat At Joes.  You could get great clam baskets at many different hole in the walls!

Hughver,

I enjoy both sushi and sashimi (very much). What I don't like is seared seafood - fully cooked or raw are both great.

And enjoy both rare and medium rare beef - go figure.

Hnce my question on how the tuna was cooked.

[hughver]

I've always thought that sashimi was a grade of fish, akin to prime meat. However, it appears that I was wrong, it refers to thin sliced raw fish. My Ahi is only warm in the middle and most of the searing occurs on the sesame seed coating.
