Prepare the Ahi Tuna:

  • Ensure the Ahi Tuna is fresh and cut it into 1/8-inch cubes. Place the cubes in a mixing bowl.

Chop Green Onions:

Include Macadamia Nuts:

Incorporate Dried Seaweed:

  • Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of dried seaweed into the bowl. Make sure it is evenly distributed.

Grate Ginger Root:
