Cabo de Peñas - Bonito del Norte - White Tuna in Organic Olive Oil

• Cabo de Peñas - Bonito del Norte - White Tuna in Organic Olive Oil

Bonito del Norte is the Spanish term for white tuna, also known as albacore tuna (Thunnus alalunga), which has been sustainably fished and selected at an optimal time for this fish delicacy.  The flesh of the Bonito del Norte is very light and of a delicate pink to whitish colour. This distinguishes it from other tuna species with darker flesh. Bonito del Norte has a mild and delicate flavour. Its meat is particularly tender and juicy, which makes it a sought-after tuna speciality. The combination of organic white tuna and extra virgin olive oil creates an exceptionally original taste that preserves both the soft texture and the high nutritional value of the tuna. Bonito del Norte is rich in protein and a good source of omega-3 fatty acids. It also contains vitamins and minerals such as vitamin D and selenium. Bonito del Norte is particularly popular in Spanish and Mediterranean cuisine and is often served in various dishes and tapas. Its mild aroma and tender texture make it a sought-after delicacy in international cuisine.
