Wild Local Albacore Tuna

Fresh Wild Local Albacore Tuna is a delicious fish which lends itself best to grilling or searing cooking applications.  Fresh Albacore has a mild to medium flavor profile with firm flesh and large flakes.  Like other tunas, it has a "steak-like" texture.

The season is now under way, coming to us from Oregon.  Wild Local Albacore is a premium tuna, the short season only runs between June and October.  These fish are sashimi quality, so I would definitely utilize them as such. Although, you can cook them any way you like. Sashimi, crudo, carpaccio, or tataki (quick seared).
