1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce

1 1/4 teaspoons sriracha

1/2 teaspoon grated garlic

1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

12 ounces sashimi-grade tuna, cut into 1/4-inch dice, chilled

2 Belgian endive, leaves separated

2 tablespoons drained, julienned Pickled Radishes, recipe follows

2 tablespoons finely chopped chives

Pickled Radishes:

1 cup hot water

1/2 cup rice wine vinegar

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

1 teaspoon honey

Pickled Radishes:

  1. In a glass measuring cup, add the hot water, vinegar, sugar, salt, honey and some pepper. Stir until the sugar and salt dissolve. Add the radishes to a glass jar and pour the pickling liquid over them. Set aside to pickle for 1 hour. After 1 hour, cover the jar and refrigerate.

Loved this. Made a tuna stack with wontons. Didn't do the radishes had pickled ginger. Very tasty and light for a hot mid west night.
