As a result our expert fishmongers look for and select the best quality product available each evening. Some differences you may notice are Yellowfin being a bit firmer and milder. Bigeye may be a lighter red and a have a higher fat content.
#2+ tuna may exhibit fat, but are generally leaner than #1. The texture should be wet and smooth but not so sticky. #2+ tuna will not display the even red translucent color of #1s but will still have good color and brightness. This is a great choice for searing!
