Not all the people know that
Sicilian red tuna fishing is regulated by a EU disciplinary, in which only few fishermen for every nation,and only during certain short periods of the year, are allowed fish pre-determined quantities of
red tuna which are controlled and certified. In fact if you will buy our
Sicilian fresh red tuna we will attach the ICCAT certificate too.
As in these days the fishing period of red tuna has just started we are suggesting you a very simple but delicious
tuna recipe which needs and will exalt the real taste of red tuna and its extreme freshness : the
tuna tartare
