Albacore Curiosity:

The Alalunga tuna is a species of fish very similar to that of the bluefin tuna but differs from it in some anatomical characteristics but above all in its smaller size; in fact, this fish can reach about one meter in length and weigh 25 kg even if the dimensions are generally smaller by about half. Its meat is preferred by many to that of bluefin tuna because it is decidedly leaner and less rich in fat.

Albacore tuna is widespread in the Mediterranean Sea and in the warm waters of all oceans. In Italian seas it is common, but only in certain locations which vary from year to year even if its presence is consistent especially in the waters around the Aeolian Islands and more generally in those that bathe the coasts of Sicily and Ionian Calabria. The albacore tuna meat is pink and firm and has a truly extraordinary, particularly delicate flavour. Its name derives from its anatomical characteristic as its pectoral fin is much longer than that of other tuna species.

Albacore Benefits:

Alalunga tuna is also an excellent source of vitamin A, niacin or vitamin B3, and mineral salts, in particular selenium, phosphorus and magnesium, but also iron and calcium. All these characteristics make this fish a perfect food to include in a healthy and balanced diet as it is ultimately excellent from a nutritional point of view.
