We caught a 5kg albacore tuna yesterday, no freezer and no-one to share it with, looks like we're eating tuna for a week!

Brilliant! Well done! We have only caught two in the Med in six years of trailing a line.

While fresh, try smearing it in wasabi, dipping in sesame seeds and lightly searing it, leaving it rare inside. Yummmmmm.

You can lengthen the life of it by marinating it in a mixture of half olive oil and half lemon juice (add flavours of choice such as ginger or garlic or curry spices). Pop in in thin plastic bags and squish every bit of air our before tying a knot. It can be eaten raw or very lightly pan fried for a minute or two.

Sorry for the thread drift .

If you have a pressure cooker and mason jars you can cook it and keep it for years!

I researched this last year when we caught a 9kg specimen, a pressure cooker isn't adequate as the pressure has to be maintained for 90 minutes. The best I could come up with is poach large chunks in olive oil for 20 minutes, put into clean jars, top with the cooking oil and keep in fridge for up to 2 weeks.
