There are six distinct stocks of albacore tuna across the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans as well as the Mediterranean Sea. Though albacore is often found in grocery stores tinned, you can enjoy this fish pan-seared or even raw as poke!
Fun fact! Tombo means “Dragonfly” in Japanese, a nod to the albacore’s long pectoral fins that can reach up to 30% of the albacore’s length!

Albacore tuna, a ubiquitous presence in the deep blue waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans as well as the Mediterranean Sea, is a fish that's well-known for its versatility. Often found canned in grocery stores, albacore tuna also shines when it's served fresh! Try it pan-fried to a perfect golden hue or savour it raw in a refreshing poke bowl.
A unique attribute of the albacore is its long pectoral fins, reminiscent of a dragonfly's wings, hence its Japanese name "Tombo". These fins can extend up to 30% of the tuna’s total body length, an interesting characteristic that sets it apart from other marine species. So, while you're relishing your next meal featuring the delectable albacore tuna, share this cool trivia with your dining companions - it's bound to add a dash of fun to your mealtime conversations.
