  • Take the fish out of the fridge 30 minutes before serving.
  • Season the fish with gourmet salt by sprinkling salt on all sides.
  • Let it rest for 15 minutes, then rinse it well under cold water.
  • Pat the fish dry before use.
  • Pour sesame seeds onto a plate. Roll the tuna in it, so all sides are covered with sesame seeds.
  • Heat a non-stick pan to a very high temperature. Sear the tuna on a dry pan for 30 seconds on each side. 
  • Slice the tuna into thin slices before serving.
