Forget what you think you know about tinned tuna—Yurrita’s Bonito del Norte Tuna Ventresca is buttery and tender, turning an everyday food into a delicacy. The fish is caught in the Cantabrian Sea off the coast of Spain using just fishing lines and hooks. Yurrita then takes the most tender part of the belly—the triangular section near the head—along with olive oil, to hand-pack this tin. Limited in production, it’s perfect for creating your own tapas dish by pairing it with bittersweet Losada Aloreña Olives.
“I went from thinking I didn’t like canned tuna to eating this straight from the tin piled on simple Murray’s Sea Salt Crackers.”
