About Fish, tuna salad
Thunnus is the genus of the true tunas, powerful, fast-swimming ocean fish that include albacore, yellowfin, bluefin, and bigeye tuna, ranking among the world's most important and valuable seafood. Warm-blooded and built for speed, these open-ocean predators range across the seas and have been fished for food since ancient times. Tuna is prized for its firm, meaty flesh, which ranges from the pale, mild albacore sold as white canned tuna to the deep red, rich bluefin favored for sushi and sashimi.
It is an outstanding source of high-quality lean protein along with omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, B vitamins, and selenium, though larger species can accumulate mercury, so variety and moderation are wise. Tuna is eaten raw as sushi and sashimi, seared rare, grilled as steaks, and canned for salads, sandwiches, and casseroles. Because it is lean, fresh tuna is best cooked briefly to stay moist. Choose deep-colored, firm, glossy fresh tuna with a clean sea smell, and keep it very cold, using fresh tuna within a day or freezing it promptly.
