Saveur Magazine said Bonito tuna is "one of the great gastronomic pleasures of every day life."

The Bonito del Norte is the most valued member of the tuna family - highly appreciated for its white flesh, exquisite flavor, and delicate texture.

It is fished using traditional hook and line methods, thus preserving the wonderful texture and flavor which is often lost when fishing with nets. Only the best of the catch is selected to ensure exceptional taste, freshness, and quality. This dolphin-free tuna from the Basque region of Spain is then gently cleaned by hand.

This exceptional white meat tuna has the solid texture, and hearty flavor, of Bonito tuna which is very different from albacore. It is packed in high-quality Spanish olive oil for extra flavor, and is all natural, with no additives or preservatives.

We use it for tuna sandwiches, stuffing piquillo peppers, on salads, paired with grilled fennel, and on crackers for appetizers.

I made tuna sandwiches with this the other day, though I did pick at the tuna first before preparing the sandwich! It has a rich nutty flavor, and I used the oil as a binder for the bit of onion that I added. Only a hint of mayonnaise was added, and I liked that. Usually I buy tuna in water, and I throw out the water.. what else am I throwing out? Vitamins? Flavor? This was enough for two sandwiches. I think I'll use it for stuffing an avocado next time.

Arroyabe Bonito Tuna is so good it seems a shame to use it to make tuna salad. However, this tuna elevates the tuna salad sandwich to gourmet level. You won't be able to concentrate on your work all morning long.
