Bianchini’s Lenten Seafood Festival continues with an all-around favorite among seafood lovers, Ahi Tuna. Also known as yellowfin tuna, Ahi is lean with
a mild, rich flavor and firm yet buttery texture. Prized for its vibrant red and pinkish color, especially when fresh. Ahi is an excellent source of healthy omega-3s and is a good source of lean protein. For all the trophy fishers out there, did you know that Ahi tuna can grow up to 400 pounds? Talk about a big catch! And can be found within the subtropical waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. Ahi is a highly versatile fish when it comes to cooking. It’s frequently enjoyed rare when prepared for sushi, sashimi, and poke, but it’s equally delicious when lightly seared and served as a filet like a premium steak.
