Can anyone tell me what this may be? They are serving this at Delmonico, where we will be dining next Sunday!!! Trying to figure out the menu items!! YUM YUM.

Hi, there. Tartare is usually a preparation of raw very fresh meat (in this case, high grade sushi quality tuna).

The traditional recipe uses fresh black pepper and fresh egg. If the recipe is the same, it's all very low carb. If the recipe is not the same, contact the restaurant and ask for the ingredients! It's the best way to find out what you want to know.

You could also have a look in the Kitchen Forum, where Karen (our resident Executive Chef) might have an answer for you. I'll actually 'move' this post there for you, as a matter of fact.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the answer. Now I know I WONT be getting that, LOL!! YUK, I don't eat anything raw. icky!!

Thanks again!

Aww come on! Live it up!

A friend and I used to regularly eat albacore tuna tartar wrapped in nori and dipped in soy sauce and wasabi. Delish! The texture is beautifully silky.

BTW, I have the T-shirt that matches your avatar so we must be kindred spirits. In that case, try the tartar.

Hi Karen!

Thanks for the suggestions, but honestly I just might gag! LOL!! I've watched too many parasite shows to know better, LOL! I'll see how tired and gullable I am and maybe I will, we'll see.... I may just stick with the chicken, YUM YUM!!

PS: I want a shirt like that, I love it! It's so funny!

Ah, that's why you use frozen fish in sushi, sashimi and tartar. Freezing kills all those critters if they're there.

I got the T-shirt in San Francisco. You could probably find one in LA easily.

Hi Karen!!

Yeah, need to find one! It's SO me!!

I've about had it with the cootie bugs, I work at an animal hospital too so, many critters there too.... LOL!!

I don't think I wanna waste the $$ on something I don't know if I'll like or not.... maybe I will while I'm there. BUT if it has a face on it, FORGET IT it won't happen.. LOL!!

PS: do you live in SF? I used to live there about 5 years ago!
