Notes
- The color — Once you’ve poured that delicious marinade over the tuna, you might’ve realized a change of color. that is only a normal reaction to the acidic nature of the marinade. However, if you leave your dish at room temperature for too long, there will probably be another color change, and that shouldn't be good.
- The fish — Another good tip is to freeze the tuna for an hour or so before preparing your dish. A hardened tuna will be easier to slice, and that will result in better-cut pieces and an even more delicious dish.
