The ventresca is the most prized part of the tuna. It is extracted from the abdominal area and is characterized by its delicate texture and its high content of infiltrated fat, which gives it a smoother and juicier flavor than the rest of the fish. It is a real delicacy for tuna lovers.

Advantages of Olive Oil

When packed in olive oil, the ventresca is not only preserved in a natural way, but also its flavor and properties are enhanced. The oil permeates the meat, making it even more tender and tasty.

Health Benefits

Despite being the fattest part of the tuna, the belly is very healthy:

• Omega-3: It is an exceptional source of Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), beneficial for cardiovascular and brain health and for reducing inflammation.

• Quality proteins: Like the rest of the tuna, tuna belly is a great source of high biological value proteins.

• Vitamins and minerals: It provides B vitamins, especially B12, as well as vitamin D and essential minerals such as selenium and phosphorus.

In summary, Usisa’s tuna belly in olive oil is a gourmet product that combines an exquisite flavor, a unique texture and a great amount of nutritional benefits. It is ideal to enjoy alone, in salads or as part of a special appetizer.
