Instructions

  • Prepare the Tuna
    Slice the tuna into thin sashimi-style slices or small cubes, depending on your presentation preference. Keep chilled.
  • Segment the Citrus
    Using a sharp knife, peel the orange and grapefruit, removing all white pith. Carefully segment each fruit and set aside. Collect any juice in a bowl.

    In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons De Nigris Aged Rosé Vinegar, 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, zest of half a lemon, salt and pepper to taste
  • Assemble the Crudo
    On each chilled plate (or a platter), arrange the tuna slices, citrus segments, and a few microgreens or herbs.
  • Dress and Finish
    Spoon the citrus-vinegar dressing evenly over the tuna. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes to lightly marinate. Garnish with fresh herbs, lemon zest, and edible flowers, if using.
