Review of Bonito Del Norte Tuna - White Tuna in Olive Oil

This is a high quality albacore that comes in a single large chunk.The texture is very firm and it has good flavor for albacore.Clearly far better than chicken of the sea, but I didn't think it was so amazing that it was clearly worth the premium price.To me, Albacore is more bland and has a drier texture than yellowfin.While this is fine for making tuna salads, I expected to be able to enjoy a tuna this expensive straight out of the jar.

For a truly amazing jar tuna, try tonnino yellowfin ventresca.It's from the belly (mmm, fatty), has a luscious melt-in-your mouth texture, and a fresh tuna flavor.I opened a jar for a taste, and 10 minutes later had an empty jar.Oops!

Review of Anchovies/Anchoas by LaTienda.com

These anchovies are something else. The fillets are fleshy, not dried up in salt like most of the anchovies I have eaten before. The consistency of the meat is preserved very well. While most anchovies are salty with the characteristic, wonderful ... stink, these anchovies are also flavorful in addition to being only stinky. I am not sure how this is done - perhaps by shortening the time the fish is cured in salt?
The price is unjustifiably high though - one can get 2 lbs of Moroccan anchovies for the same price.
Nevertheless, these are (from far) the best anchovies I tried.

Product Description
These silky, tender whole fillets packed in olive oil put to shame the mushy anchovies you get at the supermarket. What sets these anchovies apart from all others is the curing tradition of the Basque region that goes back for generations. Unlike other strong flavored varieties, these little white anchovies are salted, washed in clear water and individually packed by hand in olive oil. You won't find a higher quality anchovy anywhere
