Vilgain White tuna ventresca in organic extra virgin olive oil - fillets from the most valuable part of the tuna rich in omega‑3
Tender and packed with healthy fats, the belly meat of white tuna is considered one of the most valuable fish delicacies ever. Unlike the back, the meat is much more tender, juicy and has a slightly sweeter taste.
Sustainable fishing and manual processing
We use sustainable methods to catch tuna using only hooks and lines that are gentle on the tuna. This is also why our fish can boast MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) certification, giving you assurance of sustainability, accountability in fishing practices and transparency of origin. After harvesting, the white tuna goes on to La Rioja, Spain, and the best ones are processed using traditional techniques by a local family‑run business with a rich history in the fish industry.
The best piece with lots of nutrients
The delicate and slightly sweet flavour of the fish is complemented by the extra virgin olive oil and is slightly more supple than tuna in its own juices. But what makes ventresca a truly exceptional food is the wide range of nutrients your body can't do without.
In the first place, you'll find omega‑3 fatty acids, which tuna has in abundance, and even more in the belly than in other parts. It is a perfect source of complete protein, potassium, vitamin B6 or vitamin B12.
In a handy jar there is only fish meat, olive oil and a pinch of salt. No other ingredients that shouldn't be there, such as artificial preservatives. Try tuna with teriyaki sauce and rice, in a salad with cherry tomatoes and arugula, or substitute it for ground beef in a puffed fish burger.
