Yellowfin Tuna Loin, Sashimi Grade

About this item

Trimmed from the centre of the block with the dark blood line and membrane taken off, this is clean enough to slice raw. The flesh is deep, even ruby red with a tight grain and no gaps or sinew. Frozen at sea and held at a steady deep freeze, the cut stays firm and the colour holds after thawing instead of browning at the edges. On the palate it is mild and clean, with almost no iron aftertaste, so it takes soy and citrus without being overwhelmed. Slice thin against the grain, or sear the whole block and rest it before carving.
