Yellowfin tuna

Yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) is a large, fast-swimming fish found in tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide, including the Philippines. Known for its distinctive yellow fins and streamlined body, it can reach up to 50 miles per hour and grow over 2 meters long and 200 kg. Yellowfin tuna is highly prized in the fishing industry for its firm, flavorful meat, making it popular for sushi, sashimi, and grilling. It is often caught using longlines or purse seines, and while it is a crucial part of the global seafood market, there are concerns about overfishing and sustainable fishing practices.

Yellowfin tuna has firm, flavorful meat popular in dishes like sushi, sashimi, and grilled steaks. Its texture holds up well to searing, making it ideal for quick cooking at high heat. It's often seasoned lightly with salt, pepper, or marinades, allowing the rich, natural taste to shine through.
