Production, Maturing and Marketing of Extra Tuna Mojama
The artisanal production process of Mojama de Atún begins with a careful selection of top quality tuna. The pieces are salted and subjected to a maturation process that can last several weeks, allowing the product to acquire its characteristic concentrated flavour .
- Once we have the tuna loins clean, we press them gently with sea salt.
- It is a 100% natural and artisanal process known as salting.
- The result? The pieces lose a large amount of water and are cured, concentrating all their flavor.
By choosing our tuna, you are not only bringing a delicacy of exceptional quality to your table. You are also supporting small local producers and contributing to the sustainability of the artisanal fishing sector.
