Continue ShoppingZa'atar Seared Hamachi
Seared tuna loin was and probably still is a thing, so why not do the same with Hamachi? This beautiful firm fish is often served raw as sashimi or crudo and works just as well as tuna. You can get creative by switching the coating and also what you are serving it with.
