Ingredients
- 2 gallons Hawaiian shoyu, such as Aloha
- 2 pounds brown sugar
- 2 pounds white sugar
- 1/2 pound fresh ginger, sliced
- 1 quart cooking sherry
- 1 cup oil
- Handful rough-chop green onion
- 3 garlic heads, cut in half horizontally
- 1 tablespoon ground white pepper
- Six 1/2-pound portions ahi tuna
- Oil, for seasoning tuna
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Place shoyu, brown and white sugars, ginger, sherry, oil, green onions, garlic, white pepper and 3/4 gallon water in a large pot and bring to a rolling boil. Let cool, then strain out the solids so you are left with just teriyaki sauce. Place the ahi in a large bowl and cover with the teriyaki marinade (save remaining marinade for another use). Let marinade, refrigerated, 4 to 6 hours.
- Preheat a grill for cooking at medium-high heat. Oil tuna and sprinkle with salt and pepper, then grill to desired doneness, 2 1/2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
