These canned tuna loins are traditionally made with yellowfin tuna that comes from the Atlantic Ocean. The loins are cooked in brine and packed in tablets, including a coating of olive oil, an exquisite product that helps preserve its flavor for longer.
These canned tuna loins in oil are made with the upper part of the fish. To do this, the first step is a demanding cleaning, where remains of skin, blood and bones are removed to ensure an optimal result.
These pieces are pre-cooked for a short period of time, to ensure that they preserve their great texture and prevent the oxidation of their fat. The tuna loins are filleted by hand and packaged fillet by fillet to ensure they are all completely infused with olive oil.
Manual packaging is used to ensure the quality of this with a high level of cleanliness.
To preserve cans of tuna loins at home, we recommend that you store it in a dry place at room temperature. These cans can be kept in perfect condition for about 6 years.
When it comes to tasting it, we suggest you try it with toasted bread on a base of piquillo peppers, where you can discover all its flavor to the fullest with a perfect combination of ingredients. And for a good pairing, we recommend an Albariño or Chardonnay wine, although light tuna also combines well with fruity red wines.
