Tuna is a nutritionally valuable fish that is very versatile in cooking.

Bluefin tuna gets its name from the color of its meat, which is deep red when fresh. It is one of the largest species of tuna, weighing up to 600 kg and measuring 3 meters. It is characterized by silvery stripes on the belly.

Thanks to a diet based on the consumption of other blue fish and shellfish, tuna meat is rich in omega 3 fatty acids. Polyunsaturated fats are essential for our body, which can be beneficial to health, for example to regulate blood cholesterol levels.

Bluefin tuna contains 5% fat (of which 1.3% are essential omega-3 fats) and the proportion of protein is approximately 23%.

Due to the quality of the meat and its rarity, bluefin tuna is considered the most valuable of all commercial tuna species.
