The intense rich flavour of this tuna fish is accentuated thanks to its steaming and preservation which bring out the delicious scent and taste of its pinkish coloured flesh. It is perfect addition to salads, pizzas and focaccia bread.
Both water-packed and oil-packed tuna are good sources of protein and low in saturated fat. However, canned tuna packed in oil tends to be higher in calories and total fat.
