A Fresh Catch from Puglia

CASTELLO TUDISCO TUNA TARTARE WITH OLIVES
Serves 4

At Castello Tudisco, our olive-loving family often serves this refreshing recipe, which calls for bluefin tuna, but you may also use yellowfin tuna, skipjack tuna, bonito or other varieties of fish.

Ingredients:

• 1 pound of chopped fresh tuna, bonito, or skipjack
• Castello Tudisco Évooc and BéVoo as needed
• 1 lemon
• 10 basil leaves
• 1 cloves of garlic
• 1 tablespoon pine nuts
• 1 teaspoon of chopped black olives
• black olives, (pitted if preferred)
• some bibb or romaine lettuce leaves
• salt and pepper

Preparation:

Remove bones and skin from the tuna, then cut it into 1/4in. cubes.
Season 1/3 of the flesh of tuna with Castello Tudisco Évooc, salt, pepper and BéVoo olive oil.
Place the tartare into bowls, garnishing with chopped lettuce, black olives, and basil leaves.
A fine recipe for a starter or a second dish of raw fish, Italian style.
