I am looking for a recipe for a sauce to put over ahi tuna steaks, similar to the sauces they serve in sushi restaurants.

Maybe like a creamy or spicy ponzu sauce. Thank you.

• Angel food, Chinese style: I would like to know if anyone knows how to make the Chinese version of angel food cake. This cake is not as sweet as the American version; it uses whole eggs, not just the whites; and it is yellow in color, not the traditional white. It does not use powdered sugar.

The cakes are sold in San Francisco's Chinatown, as well as some Chinese bakeries in Sacramento. I love the cakes; so does my little girl. I know that the older generation of Asian women probably would have the recipe -- I just can't find one.
