Albacore Tuna Belly in olive oil. Can 115g.

The ‘Bonito del Norte’ or ‘Thunnus Alalunga’ is caught, one by one, in the Cantabrian Sea, in the waters of the Bay of Biscay during the summer coastal fishing season, using traditional fishing methods. Its intense taste of the sea, its clear flesh and its properties have undoubtedly made it the king of tuna.

Once the best specimens have been selected and the cooking process has been completed, the fish is prepared and packaged using traditional techniques. The skill and experience acquired over five generations is part of our secret to achieving the exceptional appearance and flavour, with tasty and appetising white meat, that characterise our preserves.

Buy the Albacore Tuna Belly can, which contains the softest and most delicate textured part of the Albacore Tuna. The “Ventresca” is the area located in the lower part of the fish, near the head, and is undoubtedly the juiciest and tastiest part. A real luxury among canned fish. It is also visually different as it is laminated in appearance, unlike the loins. Once we have cooked the Albacore Tuna and separated the “Ventresca”, we clean it by hand with a small knife until it is perfectly clean and we put it in the can with great care, as its flesh is so delicate that it could break. Then we add a high quality olive oil with a mild flavour to give it a light aroma and reinforce its characteristic mellow texture, but which maintains and does not mask the delicate and genuine flavour of the Albacore Tuna Belly.

As a curiosity... Did you know that from a 9 kg Albacore Tuna we only get one and a half 81g tins of Belly? Isn't it incredible?

It is also important to highlight that our Albacore Tuna Belly is not only delicious, but also a nutritional gem, as it provides your body with proteins of high biological value, healthy fats (omega 3), vitamins and minerals.

Choose our canned Albacore Tuna Belly, maximum enjoyment and great for your health! They are always ready to eat, last a long time and do not need to be kept cold.

One last practical tip, once you open the can of “Ventresca”, and in the very unlikely event that you do not finish it, we recommend you store it in the fridge covered in olive oil and consume it within 3-4 days.
