Yellowfin Tuna Loin
2 pound loin cut, skin-on, fresh #1 sushi grade Wonderful alternative to bluefin tuna Permanent fixture of Le Bernardin's menu Yellowfin tuna loin is #1 sushi grade quality. When it comes to sushi-grade tuna, freshness is key. That is why we prepare your order the day it ships out of our facility. To grade yellowfin tuna, we use a sashibo, which is a Japanese metal probe that removes a thin core from the fish. When grading, we assess the color, fat content, and texture of the fish; if it doesn’t meet our high standards, we send it back. Full of flavor, yellowfin tuna loin is perfect for sushi, carpaccio, or lightly seared on the grill or broiler. Check out our Tuna Crostini recipe for more inspiration.
