Tuna "ventresca" in olive oil

15.74€

This belly fillet immediately won us over. It has an almost creamy texture and the slices are really tasty without being too salty - when they touch the palate all the flavour floods out. Use them as you like: in salads or to prepare an unforgettable plate of spaghetti, and why not savour the pleasure of them "nature"?
The tuna is steamed and flesh covering the flanks and abdominal cavity are packaged directly into jars. The ventresca has a high level of fat compared to other cuts and is one of the most choice parts of the fish. It needs an artisan preparation which is the privilege of a few experts.
Tuna is a deeply rooted part of the Mediterranean culture: it has been fished, preserved and sold since ancient times. Aristotle himself remembers how it was being traded between the Phoenicians and the Carthaginians. The preparation of tuna is particularly a part of the thousand year old tradition of this splendid island of Sicily.
In Sciacca, in the heart of Sicily, the Licata family have been selecting the best products from Sicilian agricultural and fishing traditions and preparing them according to ancient culinary customs and preserving them without the use of additives, preservatives or colourings. The Villa Reale has a wide range of typical products which gives testimony to their love for their land, their loyalty to tradition and the artisan love and care taken to prepare them, which bring back long forgotten flavours.
