Sesame Crusted Yellowfin Tuna with Wasabi Sauce

Yellowfin tuna gets its name from its long, bright yellow fins. The largest yellowfins can weigh more than 100 pounds and their high fat content makes them desirable. The rich, red flesh of the yellowfin cooks to a wonderful white "steak." Tuna is great for searing, broiling, baking and sauteing.
