The most desired tuna. A fish renowned in Japanese cuisine. Its flesh ranges from pink in smaller specimens to deep red in larger ones. Generally caught at shallower depths, it typically has a lower fat content, which is why it is less preferred (compared to Bigeye) for raw and semi-raw preparation. However, people with less trained palates will enjoy both species regardless of their preparation, especially when it comes to larger specimens, which will typically be less lean.
