Description
Japan Grade - Deep frozen at -60C - Chutoro comes from the belly of the tuna and is known for its medium fatty quality and the middle part between the Otoro and Akami. Chu means 'middle' in Japanese; it is not too fatty nor too lean. It is similar to the Akami with the addition of slight sweetness and a more pinkish colour graduating to deep red because of the higher level of fattiness at one end. The Chutoro is perfect for serving raw. As sashimi, sushi, tartar, ceviche or simply grilled or barbecued, the result is outstanding.
