Instructions
Make Karen's Zesty Ponzu Sauce ahead of time (or see suggestions for marinade.)Steam rice.
Wash and pat dry the tuna. Cut into even 1/2" cubes (cut to the size of your liking.)Add to a bowl to fit. Add the Ponzu Sauce, mix well cover and refrigerate 15 minutes, or up to one hour.
Put Together Bowls:
Add 1/2 cup rice to each bowl. I like luke-warm rice, you might prefer warm or room temperature. Add a portion of tuna to the center of each bowl using any juices in the bowl. Add scallions over tuna.
Start topping each bowl with cucumbers, radishes and carrots - adding decoratively. Continue topping with avocado, seaweed and enoki mushrooms.Sprinkle macadamia nuts and sesame seeds over the tuna. Add pink salt if desired and serve! I like to have extra Ponzu sauce on the side for drizzling.
Notes
* If not using Karen's Zesty Ponzu Sauce: Optional Marinade ~ stir up 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari, 2 teaspoons pure sesame oil, pinch of chili flakes such as Gochugaru or Szechuan, 1 tablespoon lemon juice or - Yuzu Juice (my favorite.)
