Tips
If you marinate the tuna for longer than the suggested time, the taste will be stronger and the color will be darker. If you don’t have a rice cooker, I recommend soaking your rice 30 mins before starting the recipe and then cooking it while the tuna is marinating. You can learn how to cook Japanese style rice for donburi on my post here . Note: The nutritional information includes the marinade.
