Tuna Mojama is, without a doubt, the undisputed star of Murcia's salted fish , standing out as one of the most emblematic products of the rich salting tradition that characterizes the region of Murcia and, in particular, San Pedro del Pinatar . This delicacy, made from the finest tuna loins, follows a traditional salting and drying process that has been perfected over generations, guaranteeing a unique flavor and an unparalleled texture.
Mojama can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, either on its own, sliced thinly to highlight its intense flavor and smooth texture, or accompanied by fried and salted Marcona almonds , creating a perfect contrast between the saltiness of the mojama and the crunchiness of the almonds. It's also ideal paired with a good splash of extra virgin olive oil, which further enhances its flavor and highlights the product's unique nuances. For the most daring palates, combining mojama with Xixona nougat is a surprising option that blends the best of sweet and savory flavors, offering an innovative and delicious culinary experience.
Furthermore, tuna mojama is an essential component in a salted fish salad , where it blends perfectly with other traditional products such as salted anchovies , mullet roe , and tuna roe . Its versatility also makes it an ideal ingredient for more elaborate dishes, such as a smoked fish salad , where its characteristic flavor is balanced with other products such as smoked salmon and bonito loins .
This product, one of the most representative of Murcian salted fish , is perfect for those looking to enjoy the authentic salting tradition at their table.
