Professional Uses, Preparation, and Storage:
► Culinary Applications: Bluefin tuna is the undisputed king of raw preparations. Its firm texture and subtle chew make it the perfect candidate for surgically precise sashimi, sushi, premium nigiri, or tataki seared briefly on the grill and coated in sesame seeds. In contemporary cuisine, it shines when beautifully reworked as a hand-cut tartare seasoned with toasted sesame oil and yuzu, or sliced into an ultra-thin carpaccio enhanced with fleur de sel and premium olive oil. For hot cooking, it can be prepared like meat: a fillet simply seared on a griddle, crispy on the outside and perfectly pink in the center, will elevate your seafood dishes.
► Preparation: Delivered as a fillet of approximately 500g, this format is ideal for precise portion control and cost management during each service. Its clean slicing with a carving knife ensures no waste, simplifying prep work during peak service.
► Storage: Ultra-fresh product available depending on availability and daily market prices. Store immediately upon receipt in a refrigerated room, between 0°C and +2°C, on a bed of ice to preserve its vibrant color and original freshness. This premium product can be found at our Seafood Workshop at Le Delas in the Rungis International Market.
