Instructions
Your yellowfin sushi block will arrive fresh, simply store in your fridge, and use at your leisure (up to 5 days). For home freezing, freeze on the day of arrival, and use within 3 months. Yellowfin tuna flesh colour may change colour from a light pink to light brown once frozen (this is normal).
Our Sushi Blocks are cut from the front half of the loin where there is the least amount of sinue. Sinue is the connective tissue that connects the muscles to bones and ligaments. Every loin will contain sinue, the amount will also vary from fish to fish. -

Fishwife Recipes
Yellowfin Tuna Poke Bowl
Poke (Poh-kay) bowls are raw fish salads of Hawaiian origin. Healthy, delicious and easy to make. Try this one from fishwife.co.za. You will need:
- 400g (plus minus) Greenfish Sushi Grade Yellowfin Tuna
- 2 tsp Sesame Seeds
- 2 Tbsp Pine Nuts
- Half a small Red Onion (julienned)
- 4 Baby Spring Onions (finely chopped)
- 4 Garlic Cloves (minced)
- 1 Thumb Ginger (grated)
- 2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
- 1 tsp Sesame Oil
- 1 Avocado
- Half a Medium Heat Chili (optional)
- Micro Herbs (optional)
- Garnish with Edible Flowers (optional)
Preparation:
- Dry the Yellowfin Tuna off with paper towel and set aside on a chopping board.
- In a dry pan on medium heat, add the Sesame Seeds and Pine Nuts and toast until nice and golden. Remove from the pan and set aside in a bowl to cool down.
- Cut the Tuna across the grain into small bite size cubes. Cutting across the grain will allow the tuna to fall apart and melt in your mouth. Avoid using the pieces by the tail as they can contain sinew.
- Combine the toasted Sesame Seeds, Pine Nuts, Red Onion, Spring Onions, Ginger, Garlic, Soy Sauce, Sesame Oil and Chilli in a large bowl.
- Add the Tuna cubes and mix through evenly until well coated with the marinade.
- Cut the Avocado into cubes and gently toss through the marinade.
- Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the Tuna to absorb the flavours.
- Serve in a bowl topped with Micro Herbs and Edible Flowers for a pop of colour.
