Which serving description matches Tuna Nigiri?

• A. Tuna thinly sliced and brushed. Served over wasabi brushed sushi and dashi soy sauce.
• B. Tuna cooked in breadcrumbs and served with tartar sauce.
• C. Tuna served as sashimi with no rice.
• D. Tuna baked in cheese sauce.

Answer: (A)

Tuna nigiri is a piece of sushi made by shaping a small bed of seasoned rice and topping it with a slice of tuna, often with a light brush of wasabi and a touch of soy sauce. The description that matches this setup describes thinly sliced tuna placed over rice and served with wasabi and soy (dashi-infused) sauce, which is exactly how nigiri is presented. The other descriptions don’t fit because they depict non-nigiri preparations—breaded and fried tuna, tuna served as sashimi with no rice, or tuna baked in cheese sauce.
