Santa Catarina - Tuna Fillet in Olive Oil with Fennel
Tuna Fillet in Olive Oil with Fennel.
Nine hundred miles into the Atlantic, the Azores have perfected sustainable tuna fishing over centuries. Santa Catarina's pole-and-line boats work these deep waters where ocean currents collide, pulling albacore one fish at a time using methods that guarantee zero by-catch while supporting island fishing communities now and in the future.
These hand-trimmed fillets reflect generations of island expertise. Skilled women process each catch on São Jorge Island, maintaining standards that have earned international recognition for sustainability.
Fennel brings an unexpected dimension to the table, with aniseed notes that complement the fish's natural oils perfectly. The herb adds aromatic depth without overwhelming, creating an unexpected layer of flavour. Arrange over bitter leaves with a drizzle of the fennel-infused oil.
