Spanish White Tuna in Olive Oil with Espelette Pepper

Ortiz Spanish White Tuna in Olive Oil with Espelette Pepper elevates the classic canned tuna experience with thick, luxurious chunks packed in a glass jar. Bonito del Norte, prized for its delicate texture and mild flavor, is hand-packed in premium olive oil and accented with just a touch of Basque Espelette pepper for a subtle, smoky heat. The result is tuna that’s rich, tender, and layered with a gently spicy finish.

Versatile and refined, this tuna shines in everything from Spanish-style tapas to simple salads, hearty sandwiches, or tossed with pasta and fresh vegetables. It’s equally at home on a charcuterie or antipasti board, paired with olives, roasted peppers, and crusty bread, or enjoyed simply on its own to highlight the pristine quality of Ortiz’s craftsmanship. The addition of Espelette pepper gives it a distinctly Basque character, making it a unique gourmet pantry staple.
