  6. Cut your tuna in half. Half will be used for your salad - half for your sashimi. Place your other half back in the fridge. Definitely use a very sharp knife. Don't saw it. Just allow the knife to glide through your fish.

  7. With a very sharp knife, slice tuna into 1/2" cubes. Work fast as so bacteria doesn't form on your tuna. Place in a non-metalic bowl.
