PRODUCT DETAILS
Otoro Blue-Fin Tuna
Description
One of the most expensive and sought-after cuts for sashimi and sushi lovers, Otoro is the fattiest and most marbled part of Blue-Fin Tuna. This luxurious cut, taken from the belly of the tuna, is known for its melt-in-your-mouth texture and rich, creamy flavor. Otoro offers a delicate balance of umami and sweetness, making it a favorite in high-end sushi establishments. Its limited availability and high demand contribute to its premium price.
Toro, the prime meat from the belly, is divided into two parts: Otoro ("O" meaning big) and Chutoro ("Chu" meaning medium). Otoro has the most marbled texture, providing an unparalleled sushi experience. Blue-Fin Tuna, from which Otoro is sourced, is exclusively used in top-tier sushi restaurants, commanding the highest prices at Tokyo’s famous fish markets.
