This is a quick and very easy to make recipe. Is it ok if it will remain inside the chiller overnight? And it says, the tuna are fresh, is it ok to eat it raw? Can I use canned tuna as an alternative?

Has to be fresh, raw sushi grade ahi for best flavor. Definately not canned, which is cooked. Don't worry, fresh ahi has a good meaty flavor, not too fishy or oily and from quality fish monger, safe to eat. The sesame oil and seeds give it a nutty flavor, red pepper wakes the taste buds.

As for overnight, not sure about that. I'd treat it like any salad where you mix dressing and lettuce prior to serving. Probably best to prepare in advance night before, but keep tuna in whole chunk wrapped, separate, well chilled, never frozen. Prior to serving, dice tuna and mix.

Goes fast at a party, especially if you invite me or Rod.
