Albacore tuna in water - no salt added

This is albacore- or white tuna in its purest form. Not only because we caught it traditionally, with a fishing rod, but also because we only added a bit of water. This way you can taste the pure, soft taste of the fish with every single bite. Add the high count of omega 3 fatty acids and its carefree enjoyment all the way.

Origin

In Spanish Basque Country tuna is a culinary favorite. Is it the special and traditional ways of the fishermen of Hondarribia that have any part in this?

Fish with a story

Family is important to tuna fisherman Oskar. That’s why he’s very happy when he gets good value for his fish and a stable income, so he can provide for his family. If his son will follow in his footsteps? “He’s only six years old, but who knows. I want to, at least, make this possible for him and that’s why I fish fair.’

Fishing method

Oskar and his crew fish with pole & line. Before they get started, they tie a rope around their waist and attach it to the boat, so they won’t go overboard when the fish pull too hard.

When the fishermen spot a school of tuna, they throw live little fish overboard. This helps to draw the tuna’s attention - and eventually draws in the tuna. The great way about this traditional method is that the fishermen only catch tuna fish. So there’s no bycatch nor damage to nature.
