Information:
Albacore Tuna are caught by boats and fishermen that insure their fish is
of the highest quality. The fish are landed carefully to minimize bruising
and bled out to enhance the mild flavor and preserve the natural white color
of the flesh. The tuna is put into the boat's hold and frozen solid within
three hours from the time they are caught. The Albacore Tuna is delivered
and processed in a unique way that is unlike the say it's done in high production
canneries. The tuna is cut by hand from uncooked fresh fish and it is then
packed by hand with no additives, except sea salt when requested. It is then
cooked in its own natural juices that are low in calories, fat and sodium.
This process also makes our tuna high in protein, B Vitamins and Omega-3 fatty
acids. Be sure to use all of the juices that are in the cans as our tuna is
ALL NATURAL and packed full of goodness.
Smoked Albacore Tuna is processed the same way as the fresh fish, except it's
put into an Alderwood Smokehouse for a short time before it is put into the
cans. They also add a touch of soybean oil to replace some of the moisture
lost while the tuna is being smoked.
