Conservas La Narval Special Selection: Bonito del Norte Ventresca in Galician Butter 110g

Regular price $36.95

Experience a rare revival of Galician culinary history with this Special Selection tuna belly. Bonito del Norte (Albacore) is widely considered the finest tuna for conservas, and the ventresca—the delicate, marbled belly cut—is its most prized portion. In a nod to historic preservation techniques, La Narval nestles these hand-trimmed fillets in rich, local Galician butter. This unique preparation enhances the tuna’s naturally silky texture, creating a luxurious "sea-meets-land" profile that is both creamy and refined.

Since 1966, La Narval has prioritised artisanal precision over volume, sourcing its Bonito one-by-one using traditional pole-and-line methods to ensure a responsible catch and unbruised fillets. To fully appreciate this premium tin, we recommend gently warming it in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes until the butter becomes silky. Rather than serving on bread, try flaking the warm ventresca over a bed of slow-roasted kipfler potatoes or folding it into a warm cannellini bean salad with cracked black pepper. These sustainably sourced Atlantic treasures bring an uncompromising level of Spanish craftsmanship directly to your table.
