The most delicate cut of white tuna, with a subtle smoky note.
La Curiosa is based in Nigrán on the Galician coast. You may already know the brand's ventresca in olive oil and ventresca with green curry. For this tin, La Curiosa takes the belly section of bonito del norte, or white tuna (Thunnus alalunga), gently smokes it, and preserves it in olive oil. When you open the tin, you'll see pale, succulent fillets with a slight golden shimmer.
Ventresca is soft and succulent even without smoking, as the belly contains more fat than the rest of the fish. The smoke complements it without overpowering the fish: first you taste the mild tuna, then a hint of wood fire. The fillets almost melt in your mouth. A full 65% of the tin is fish; the rest is olive oil.
The belly section is gently smoked and then preserved in olive oil. Nothing else is added to the tin.
Best enjoyed on its own on crispy bread or on a salad of tomatoes, spring onions, and white beans. On an aperitif platter, it pairs well with roasted peppers and olives. Serve with a glass of Fino, chilled Txakoli, or Albariño.
