Tuna II: A Success Story

I tried tuna again after my disastrous mistake a couple nights ago.  My god was that terrible.  In any case... turned out much better!  Marinated in a soy based... marinade.  I made a sauce to put over it by reducing some soy sauce and brown sugar with a few whole cloves of garlic.  It was yummy.  The side salad had a ginger dressing on it like the ones you get at Hibachi and some other asian restaurants.  I'll probably make the two sauces again,  but maybe not the fish.

Tuna looks a bit over cooked... but was just how I like it so that was nice.  Woot.  Now I never have to cook fish again.

A series of terrible mistakes - Salty Tuna

Tuna steak with brown rice and asparagus.  A reduced shiitake dressing on top.  Forgot I had run out of the reduced sodium soy sauce... so I was using regular soy sauce and adding salt. What a terrible mistake.  Tuna was also a bit over cooked.  0/10 - would not make that way again.

If you don't look too closely and you don't put it in your mouth... everything seems ok!

Look at that overcooked piece of salty tuna. Just terrible.

Stuffed Bread - Sun Dried Tomatoes/Olives/Roasted Garlic

Never tried to make a stuffed bread recipe before... and I think I may be missing something.  It tasted really good but visually I would have liked a nice spiral of filling on the inside.  Instead I got a crescent of stuff near the bottom.    Oh Well.

Yummy. Used an old bread recipe with slightly more yeast than normal.

Topping was mostly rosemary and sea salt with some dried/roasted garlic.  Possibly some other stuff... usually i just wing it for stuff like this. 

Stuffing!  A mix of roasted garlic, sun dried tomatoes, olives, and some spices.  Really good, although possibly a bit heavy on the sun dried tomatoes.  I'll use a bit less next time.  Garlic roasted in a pan this time... i should have used the oven but I was lazy.
