Eating the recommended two servings per week of omega-3 rich seafood just got a little easier with the launch of “Summer of Sustainable Seafood”, a promotion by the Western Fishboat Owners Association (WFOA). The group of West coast albacore fishermen and supporting businesses hopes the initiative will change the way people cook and enjoy seafood.
On Tuesdays and Thursdays from May 31 through August 30, Wild Pacific Albacore will publish a recipe featuring sustainable, West coast-caught albacore tuna. The recipes will be posted on the Wild Pacific Albacore Facebook page, blog, and Twitter feed (@PacificAlbacore). The recipes can be downloaded, shared and collected. The first recipe featured is a twist on the classic tuna sandwich, an Albacore Niscoise Sandwich.
The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans, released earlier this year by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), recommends that Americans eat at least 8 to 12 ounces (two to three servings) of seafood each week because of its health benefits.
We're encouraging people to send their favorite recipes in for consideration. Recipes can be emailed to info@pacificalbacore.com and the best recipes will be published as part of the promotion.
