Description

Red Tuna Bottarga by Testa Conserve celebrates one of the most prized parts of the bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus), its roe. The roe, collected from tuna caught in the Mediterranean Sea (FAO Area 37.2.2 and 37.1.3), is salted and aged using traditional methods that enhance its intense flavor and granular texture.

Bottarga, also known as “the gold of the sea,” is a food with ancient roots, dating back to the Phoenicians and ancient Greeks. In Sicily, the production of bottarga is a centuries-old tradition passed down from generation to generation. The aging process results in a unique product, rich in umami and capable of enhancing numerous dishes.

The complete production chain, from fishing to processing, is guaranteed by the food company Testa Conserve, which operates in accordance with a Hygienic Safety System based on the HACCP method and in compliance with current regulations. Every phase of the processing is carefully monitored to ensure a product of the highest quality.
