As HG has mentioned in previous posts, it has been very difficult to get fresh tuna on Prince Edward Island; great tuna is caught in the surrounding sea but is immediately flown to the Tokyo fish market. Yes, if you’re relishing sushi or sashimi at a legendary Tokyo restaurant, you might have a PEI treat on your plate. For some reason, Julio’s Fish Market in St. Peters (close to HG/BSK’s oceanfront home) gets fresh tuna every now and then. Julio calls BSK; the Wonder Woman picks up two pounds. One pound is frozen (frozen and then thawed tuna is what you get at sushi/sashimi eateries.) The fresh pound is seared and served over rice noodles, rice or greens (HG chooses noodles). That was dinner last night with the tuna flavored with a dash of soy sauce and wasabi. Splendid. And, the frozen fish will be the basis for another feast in the future. Happy tuna time.
