  • Everytime he takes the pan off the heat, I cringe. Put the pan on full heat until it smokes, add oil and bring the pan back up to heat, lay the fish down dropping it away from you. 20 seconds, flip 25-30 seconds.

    brush with a compound butter or make his balsamic butter in a seperate pan and brush the tuna with it just before you put it on the the plate.

    The reason his fish is brown isn't delicious carmelized sugars in the fish, it's balsamic. Thats not good.

  • Since when are people not allowed to put their own spin on cooking? There's no right or wrong way to cook if the one eating it enjoys it.

  • This should not be divided into 3 segments. You must be going for cheap "hits" on the web.

  • i use a grilling pan, (the one with ridges) high heat, 30-60 sec's, flips, half the time on the bottom side.

  • This is not a good way to cook, he is loosing tempeture all the time...

  • He must be the Village half of Expert Village. . Balsamic is way to strong for this. Especially if you heat it. Great ahi with 1980 Home Ec techniques. GOOIE GUMMY WOW what adjectives for fish. Lastly, you grill tuna steaks and sear or grill tuna loins.

  • @NaDaher1 oh I agree don't take it off the heat, I was referring to you saying it's just tuna and how it's easy to cook :P a lot of novices would have trouble cooking it properly.

  • @KingADunkley yes it is delicate but you won't get the caramelization on the outside with a rare to medium rare center (how I believe it should be cooked) by taking it off the heat. By lowering the temp like that! The fish will just dry out or cook all the way through by the time you get a nice crust.

  • @NaDaher1 tuna is a delicate fish

  • STOP playing with your food!!!!

  • yachhhhhhh Balsamic on this... kind of cooking fish ? Also too well done.
