I had other mental plans for dinner, but when Anth brought home some sushi-grade frozen Ahi tuna from Costco, I could not get it out of my head. So I made up a new menu.

I seared the tuna, and made this dipping sauce (trying to approximate that sushi experience):

2 tbsp butter
1 tsp minced ginger
2 tbsp chicken broth
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp horseradish (wasabi is better, if you've got it)

Melt the butter and gently cook the ginger in it; do not brown. Add the liquid ingredients; bring to a boil then take off the heat. Serve in a little cup and dip bites of the tuna in it.

I also fixed the last of the sugar snap peas I got at the Farmer's Market, sauteed in sesame oil and garlic. Salad fresh from the garden. And a loaf of ciabatta from CM that I could not resist (although rice may have been a better starch-side, I couldn't let that fresh bread go to waste).
