Ingredients:
Tuna  
1 1/2 cups hot water
1 1/2 tsp green tea
1 bowl warm cooked rice
1 tbsp croutons or any crunchy cereal
Preserved seaweeds cut into strips
Japanese horseradish (wasabi), optional
Salt to taste

Cooking Procedure:
1. Season the tuna with salt and leave for 10 minutes. Broil or grill 5-6 minutes, until slightly brown. Remove the skin and bones, if any, and break up the flesh into flakes.
2. Make the tea broth by adding hot water to the tea leaves.
3. Place the rice in a large bowl and sprinkle tuna flakes over the rice. Add the seaweeds, croutons, and, if you wish, a dab of horseradish.
4. Pour as much hot tea as you want onto the rice and eat immediately.

* Ochazuke tastes even better when accompanied by good-quality Japanese salted pickled vegetables or any Western-style pickles. Cold ochazuke is recommended for summer. For this, use iced sencha, mizudashi-sencha, or any type of green tea that has been cooled down.
