Albacore tuna sashimi grade - 1 to 3 strips
- Order number: 805456
- Each pack contains one to three strips
- Often served seared ('Tataki')... completely delicious
- For sushi, a main course requires 150g of fish per person
Albacore makes great sushi and in sushi bars, it's usually pricier than yellowfin. The fillets or loins cut from the fish are the perfect shape for sashimi and need minimal trimming. Albacore is often used as Tataki (lightly searing the surface) and the result is just completely delicious. The back pieces are usually the shape of a stumpy pillar and the belly are smaller flatter pieces. They're both really quite soft so you need a super sharp knife.
Sustainability - our rating 8/10
Our albacore tuna are caught from a sustainable fishery in the North East Pacific Ocean. They are caught using hook and line, a very selective, non-destructive fishing method. This fishery has been purposefully landing less than the maximum sustainable yield to manage the fishery and positively grow the albacore stock.
