Steps:

• Combine the mustard, vegetable, and extra-virgin olive oils in a cup with a pour spout.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the wasabi, lemon juice, rice vinegar, Dijon mustard, yuzu kosho, and soy sauce, and whisk well. Slowly add the oils, whisking constantly to emulsify. Taste for seasoning, add salt, and set aside.
• Place tuna in a glass or stainless steel bowl. Add the shallots and chives, and toss gently to combine. Drizzle about half of the vinaigrette over the tuna, and mix well. Let the tartar sit for 2 minutes; taste for seasoning, and add more of the vinaigrette or salt, to taste. Leftover vinaigrette will keep, refrigerated, for 1 week.
• To serve: shape 1/6 of the tuna tartar into a disc and place it in the center of a serving plate. Arrange 3 dollops of seaweed salad around the disc and garnish with 3 potato slices. Top tuna with a small spoonful of caviar, if desired.
• Place the wakame in a mixing bowl, and soak it in tepid water for 20 to30 minutes. Remove from water, squeeze dry, and trim away the tough spine. Cut into thin strips, and place in a large mixing bowl.
• In a separate bowl, combine the vinegar, salt, sugar, and both oils. Pour the dressing over the wakame, add the chile peppers, and toss. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees. Peel the potatoes, and using a mandolin for best results (you can thinly slice with a knife, but you will not get the criss-cross pattern which makes these potatoes unique), slice them thin in a criss-cross pattern with the zig-zag part of a mandolin. Lay the slices onto a non-stick sheet pan, not overlapping, and brush them with clarified butter. Bake until crisp, about 12 minutes.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, soy sauce, sriracha, garlic and ginger. Add the tuna to the sauce and gently stir to coat. Adjust seasonings.
• To serve, top each endive leaf with about 1 tablespoon of the crudo, some Pickled Radishes and a sprinkle of chives. Serve immediately.
• In a glass measuring cup, add the hot water, vinegar, sugar, salt, honey and some pepper. Stir until the sugar and salt dissolve. Add the radishes to a glass jar and pour the pickling liquid over them. Set aside to pickle for 1 hour. After 1 hour, cover the jar and refrigerate.

Steps:

• For the plantains: Pour 1/2 inch canola oil into a large skillet and heat over medium heat until the oil is shimmering. Line a sheet pan with paper towels and set aside.
• Add the plantains to the oil; it should be barely bubbling. Cook, in batches, until soft and lightly golden, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board.
• Place a plate on top of a plantain slice and press to flatten it to 1/4- to 1/8-inch thick. Repeat with the remaining plantains. Return all the plantains to the hot oil, in batches, and fry until crispy, about 1 minute. Drain on the lined sheet pan. Season immediately with salt and pepper.
• For the tartare: In a medium bowl, combine the crema, cilantro, scallion whites, adobo, ginger, the juice from half the lime and salt and pepper to taste. Add the tuna and mix so that the tuna is well coated. Adjust the seasonings.
• Top each plantain with some tuna tartare, a sprinkle of salt, scallion greens and a squeeze of lime juice. Serve immediately.
