    Way too much olive oil in the dressing so it tasted too "heavy" for a light salad of seared tuna and greens. I would substitute avocado oil next time and reduce the amount. I didn't like the five spice powder, either, so I'll probably go back to black pepper and sesame seeds to sear the tuna. Much more authentic flavor.

    The recipe was great, but I did have to make some alterations. I almost doubled the amount of wasabi paste because I like a kick and the paste I used was slightly mild (taste the paste before you use it. I also read other reviewers saying the five-spice was too overpowering, so I halved the five-spice and doubled the grill seasoning. Instead of 2TBPS of five-spice and 1TBPS of grill seasoning, I used 1 TBPS five-spice and 2TBPS grill seasoning. It turned out great this way. Because the five-spice is much finer, it adheres to the fish more than the other spices, which could lead to the overpowering flavor.
