La Curiosa Tuna Belly Fillets in Olive Oil offer a luxurious take on one of Spain’s most prized conservas. Sourced from the tender belly of the tuna—known as ventresca—this cut is celebrated for its delicate texture, marbled richness, and incredibly buttery mouthfeel. La Curiosa, a modern producer based in Galicia, brings a fresh and design-forward approach to traditional Spanish seafood canning, using sustainable methods and a meticulous hand-packed process to preserve both flavour and integrity.
Each tin is filled with thick, silky fillets nestled in high-quality Spanish olive oil, enhancing the natural flavour of the fish without overpowering it. The result is an elegant balance of richness and clean oceanic depth. The ventresca practically melts on the tongue and is perfect served straight from the tin.
How to Enjoy:
For a simple yet stunning dish, layer the tuna belly over slices of warm roasted red piquillo peppers (available on SpanishPig.ca), top with a few flakes of sea salt and a splash of the oil from the tin. Serve with crusty bread or atop a light salad of arugula and cherry tomatoes.
Whether you're building a tapas spread, elevating a weekday lunch, or simply treating yourself to one of the finest expressions of canned seafood, La Curiosa Tuna Belly is a showstopper. It’s proof that exceptional flavour and heritage don’t need to be complicated—just beautifully preserved.
