Tenorio - Tuna Fillet with Sun-Dried Tomato and Basil

£4.95

Sun-dried tomatoes run through this tin like little deposits of concentrated sunshine, whilst basil adds the aromatics of Mediterranean kitchen gardens. The olive oil carries both additions beautifully.

These Atlantic bonito fillets absorb the tomato's umami richness and basil's herbal freshness whilst maintaining their firm, satisfying texture. The result tastes summery regardless of the season - concentrated sweetness balanced by fresh aromatics.

Particularly good spooned over cooked grains with crumbled feta and olives, or mixed through orzo salad with toasted pine nuts and lemon zest. The tomato-basil oil gets you most of the way to a dressing. From Azorean waters where bonito develops the character to stand up to bold flavours.

Ingredients: Tuna (65%), olive oil (22.5%), water, sun-dried tomato blend (3%) (tomatoes (equivalent to 35.8g fresh tomato per 120g product), spices, herbs, cornstarch, salt), salt, basil (0.25%).

About Tenorio

In the remote Atlantic archipelago of the Azores, Tenorio tuna fillets carry forward a tradition begun by Francisco Rodriguez Tenório in 1880. His original "Tuna in escabeche" established a standard for quality that continues through Cofaco's premium line today.

What distinguishes these tins is the remarkably clean flavour of bonito tuna, hand-prepared by skilled workers who maintain century-old methods. Each fillet is packed with olive oil and a touch of salt, allowing the fish's natural richness to shine through.

These fillets make brilliant quick meals—spread on crusty bread, tossed through pasta with lemon, or simply enjoyed straight from the tin with a glass of crisp white wine.

This is tinned tuna as it should be—simple, pure and treated with respect from ocean to plate.
