-Add shallots and saute, stirring until they start to caramelize and are slightly soft.
-Lower flame and add wine, vinegar, water, sugar, raisins, salt and pepper, and bay leaf.
-Bring to boil.
-Lower heat and let simmer 15-20 minutes until thickened while gently stirring (If mixture thickens too fast, add a little more water to thin slightly).

How to Plate: Slice tuna 1/4 inch thick. Please 2-4 slices of tuna on plate and top with 2 ounces (1 large spoon) of agrodolce sauce and serve.
