Stomach

Stomach of Tuna needs thorough cleaning and long gentle simmering to soften for stews. Specialty cut. As a stomach section of offal, portion for even cooking and clear labelling. Keep tuna stomach iced until cooking; pat dry for browning, and stop when just opaque (or leave a rare centre on quality loins for steaks and sashimi). Sashimi, searing, canning, and poke suit the cut. Season with salt, acid, and fat that frame dense steak-like muscle.
