Low FODMAP Tuna Tartare without the high FODMAP ingredients restaurants generally use. This starter dish is elegantly presented using 2 inch ring molds and can be garnished with chives or thinly sliced cucumbers. You can also thinly dice cucumbers and place at the bottom of the 2 inch ring while stacking the tuna on top. Fancy!
Another way to add more kick is to serve with Wasabi. However, some FODMAPers might be sensitive to pre-made Wasabi which sometimes contain wheat or sorbitol. The safest bet is to buy fresh or powdered 100% Wasabi (Japanese horseradish) and add water.
My favorite low FODMAP garlic olive oil is Baja Precious – Glorious Garlic Infused Extra Virgin Olive Oil (750ml Bottle)
