Southern Bluefin Tuna NZ Collars Per Kg/Fresh
The collar is the area right between the head and body, behind the gills. Southern Bluefin Tuna have quite a bit of delicious meat in the collar.
Protected by bones and with a thick skin that crisps up nicely when cooked, the collar is full of tender, moist meat, that is full of flavour and easy to cook perfectly.
This Southern Bluefin Tuna has been specifically selected to meet the sashimi grade. This reflects not only the premium quality of the Tuna and its meat, but also of our high standards kept when catching, storing, transporting, and processing the Tuna.
This means that you can expect the most incredible rich flavour, beautiful red/pink colour, and melt-in-your-mouth texture of the best Southern Bluefin Tuna.
Preparation: Tuna collars are perfect for grilling or smoking, just make sure to cook them as soon as possible as they are an oily part of the fish and can turn faster than other parts.
Origin: New Zealand
Sustainability: The Solander Group is New Zealand's largest single quota owner and fisher for Southern Bluefin Tuna (NZ Quota Management System code = STN).
Being a migratory specis, Southern Bluefin Tuna fishing must be managed sustainably by a number of Nations. Most importantly Japan whom sole significant consumer of SBT.
New Zealand is a signatory to CCSBT - an arrangement between most SBT fishing countries to maintain and monitor an agreed total catch. New Zealand's current allocation under CCSBT is 400 tonnes (less than 0.05% of the global total) and is managed strictly under New Zealand's own QMS.
Every fish is carefully counted and recorded, including those taken by whales. The majority of fish caught in NZ EEZ are larger, more mature fish.
