Defrosting
Riviera Seafood Club's Fresh Pacific Bluefin Tuna Akami ('Hon-Maguro' in Japanese) is prized around the world for its rich, meaty flavor and delicate features. Our Bluefin tuna are responsibly caught in the wild, and then ranched in the pristine waters of Baja by Bluefiná. Each and every Bluefin is harvested to order, always utilizing the Ike Jime method to maximize flavor and texture.
The Bluefin Tuna Spine is a rare delicacy underutilized by the general population. Once properly defrosted, preparation takes a sharp cleaving knife or a serrated edge to split the individual vertebra in half. The spinal jelly can be enjoyed straight out of the bone or spooned out for a truly unique shooter. People are pleasantly surprised by the clean and briny flavor as is ,but often pair with a small dab of other items like ikura, caviar, wasabi, etc.
Each section is 3-4 spinal links (about 1 oz of jelly total), individually packed and shipped using overnight delivery to your door.

What is Superfrozen Seafood?
Benefits of Superfreezing Seafood
By superfreezing our fresh seafood, in special ultra-cold -60°C freezers, we are able to lock in the freshness and texture of our sushi-grade seafood, while also allowing you to store our products in your conventional freezer for later consumption.
Also, to help many of our customers, most of our superfrozen seafood is shipped out in 8oz portions so you can order more at one time to save on shipping costs, and so you can thaw only the amount you need.
What if I prefer fresh seafood?
