Tuna
Best to Buy
Look for tuna that smells fresh like the ocean and has clear, bright eyes, clean red gills, and moist, shiny, tightly adhering scales.
Prep & Store
Remove packaging, rinse fish under cold water, and pat dry. Refrigerate covered with crushed ice and cling wrap for up to two days.
Tasty Tip
Avoid overcooking. Tuna is done when its flesh becomes opaque but is still moist.
Quick & Easy Recipe
Brush tuna with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and wrap in foil to bake.
Nutrition Notes
Tuna is an excellent source of selenium, niacin, and vitamin B12.
