The Red Tuna Tarantello in Olive Oil Three Towers

The Tarantello is considered one of the most prized and flavorful parts of the bluefin tuna, located between the belly and the fillet. This section, rich in fat and connective tissue, is distinguished by its exceptional tenderness and intense flavor, which is enhanced by preservation in olive oil. The Bluefin Tuna Tarantello fillets (65%) are artisanally processed to ensure maximum integrity and a superior tasting experience.
The product's quality is further underscored by the fishing techniques used—hook and line—which are considered among the most selective and respectful of the marine environment, contributing to the sustainability of fishing. The tuna comes from FAO area 37.1.3, certifying the traceability and origin of the catch.
Dipped in quality olive oil and seasoned with only sea salt, this Tarantello is a concentration of flavor and tenderness, ideal for enriching your dishes with the excellence of the sea.

The roots of this Red Tuna Tarantello are deep in tradition

Preserving tuna in oil is an ancient art, deeply rooted in Mediterranean maritime traditions. Tarantello, in particular, is a cut that folk wisdom has come to value for its balance of lean and fatty fish. The hook-and-line fishing technique is itself a centuries-old tradition, prioritizing quality over quantity, ensuring the selection of the finest specimens.
Tre Torri upholds this heritage, combining the meticulous craftsmanship of its artisanal production—which involves cooking and hand-slicing the fillets—with the simplicity of its ingredients (tuna, olive oil, and sea salt). The result is a product that respects the authentic flavor of the sea, just as it was once made in the tuna fisheries.

Choosing the Red Tuna Tarantello in Olive Oil means taking care of yourself.

Bluefin tuna is known for its high content of high-quality proteins and "good" fats. The fats found in Tarantello, in particular, are primarily unsaturated and polyunsaturated, including valuable omega-3 fatty acids. These nutrients are essential for cardiovascular health and the functioning of the nervous system.
With 16,70 g of protein per 100 g and zero carbohydrates, it's an excellent protein supplement for athletes and those following a balanced diet. Preserving in olive oil increases its energy value in a healthy way. It's a gastronomic pleasure packed with benefits, ideal for a Mediterranean diet.
