Dish of the Week

Seared Ahi | Avocado Wasabi Mousse | Ponzu Marinated Meyer Lemon | Wasabi Caviar | Micro Cilantro | Scallion 

      The dish of this week is a Seared Ahi Crudo. The word Ahi refers to two types of tuna in Hawaii, yellowfin and bigeye tuna. Here at The Twisted Tines, we like to use yellowfin tuna for our ahi dishes. Though they are caught year-round, Yellowfin is most abundant during the summer months of May to September. All Hawaii yellowfin tuna are line-caught, most of the yellowfin tuna is caught by deep-set longline fishing gear offshore of Hawaii. The rest of Hawaii's landings come from trollers, hardliners, and pole & line boats. Ways to prepare ahi include sautéed, raw (sashimi, sushi, poke), broiled, seared, grilled, dried
