Buzzonaglia di Tonno Format: 220g Buzzonaglia di Tonno Rosso di Sicilia, obtained from artisanal processing, done solely by hand, in our facility in Marzamemi, using only the finest Mediterranean Red Tuna. What is Buzzonaglia di Tonno? Buzzonaglia di Tonno is the collection of dark meats located close to the central bone of the fish: essentially, it consists of those parts of the fillet that remain attached to the backbone and vertebrae of a large fish. Buzzonaglia di Tonno is, in other words, the part of the tuna adjacent to the spine, a cut with a darker color due to a higher influx of blood. Properties: Although it is said that Buzzonaglia di Tonno is the "poorer" part of the Tuna, in reality, it is rich in flavor and nutrients. Buzzonaglia di Tonno is rich in essential Omega-3 fatty acids, useful in combating free radicals and cellular aging. It is also rich in proteins, antioxidants, and energy properties. Usage Advice: Buzzonaglia di Tonno is excellent for seasoning flavorful and rustic first courses, used to dress pasta dishes, or on focaccias or in salads. Very much appreciated for its tenderness, Buzzonaglia di Tonno adapts to many types of seafood recipes, being particularly versatile. It has a more intense flavor compared to other parts of the tuna. Having a more pronounced flavor, Buzzonaglia di Tonno, served as an appetizer, is often paired with cannellini beans, onion, a bit of olive oil, and a pinch of salt. It is also used to dress first courses, risottos: try it with our 100% Sicilian Spaghetti or our 100% Sicilian Linguine! Or, if you prefer short pasta, with our Sicilian Durum Wheat Penne! To enhance the dish, it is recommended to pair Buzzonaglia di Tonno with our Sicilian Sun-Dried Tomatoes! History and Tradition: The family business Campisi was founded in 1854 in Marzamemi (SR). Linked to the sea for over a century, Salvatore Campisi produces and transforms an extensive range of seafood products, from Red Tuna, Swordfish, Ricciola, to the exquisite bottarga, mosciame (tuna ham) up to the refinement of the catch, such as Buzzonaglia di Tonno, into pestos and pâtés, or sauces. The use of ancient techniques, dating back to the Arab period, refined over time in the small village of Marzamemi, the drying and aging of tonnara products, in a particularly suitable climatic zone, has made Salvatore Campisi worthy of being considered one of the last connoisseurs of traditions, the experience and care of a time, now in extinction, deserving of protection and recognition. Campisi states: “Our goal is to continuously seek those products that have made the history of our land; we have marketed the famous Garum Excellens, a sauce made from fish and fresh local spices used by the ancient Romans in the 5th century BC and highly sought after by connoisseurs of traditional cuisine.” It should not be forgotten that Marzamemi is located in the municipality of Pachino: the Campisi company has, in recent years, also dedicated itself to the processing and transformation of vegetable products, first and foremost the Red Gold of Pachino, the "Pachino Tomato IGP", known worldwide for its endless sweetness. One of the most successful products is the tomato sauce, in the costoluto or cherry tomato variety. Paolo Campisi assures: “The workmanship has remained the same as it has traditionally been passed down by local inhabitants for generations. Genuineness, freshness of the raw material and strict controls ensure maximum quality.” This aspect recalls one of the fundamental values of the Campisi company, namely its ethical code. Aware of living off the fruits of the land and the sea, the company respects the territory by processing products of guaranteed and controlled origin, such as the Pachino Tomato IGP or the use of fish caught exclusively by hook and never through slaughter, in the name of a healthy man-nature relationship. The attention to the identity of the territory combined with the control of all processing stages and the genuineness of the ingredients make Campisi a reality that marries the ancient flavors of the land and sea of Sicily.
