Instant Pot pressure cooker
Instant Pot inner pot trivet rack (Note: A trivet rack comes with your Instant Pot)

Prep the fish by sprinkling the sea salt on the top and bottom of the tuna steaks and then set them aside.
Mix the salt, mustard seeds, coriander, cloves, ground allspice, black pepper, chili powder, and the crumbled bay leaf in a small bowl to make the pickling season.
Rub the pickling season mixture on top of the tuna steaks.
Open the Instant Pot lid and pour the water into the bottom of the Instant Pot stainless steel inner pot.
Place the tuna steaks on the Instant Pot inner pot trivet rack.
Using the trivet handles, lower the rack with the steaks on it into the inner Pot.
Close the Instant Pot lid (make sure the valve is up – in the position for sealing) and turn on the ‘steam’ setting for 3 minutes.
When the cooking time is finished, allow a natural pressure release for at least 3 minutes.
To open the Instant Pot lid, move the valve to ‘venting’ and manually release any remaining pressure, if applicable.
Use the trivet rack’s handles to easily remove the tuna steaks from the inner pot.
Serve the pickling seasoning tuna steaks right away and enjoy!
