[About Kishu-Katsuura Fresh Tuna]
The raw tuna will be delivered to the market fresh, preserved not by being frozen, but by cold water.
With the usual freezing method, when the tuna is defrosted, the water content which also contains the umami of the tuna (the drip) leeches out, but this will not happen with this method.
The Kishu-Katsuura "Raw Tuna" is all fresh, so it has a soft and chewy mouthfeel, and you will be able to enjoy the umami-filled true taste of tuna!
