  • A five-minute appetizer, a very simple recipe with tuna, parsley, and tomatoes — it comes out so delicious you'll lick your fingers. This combination of tomato and tuna with finely chopped herbs looks beautiful on the table and tastes great! Quietly and very quickly, a fish that was once completely unfamiliar to us — tuna — has made its way into our diet. People make sushi with it, eat it in salads (in canned form), make delicious appetizers from it, and some connoisseurs order steaks of this reddish meat at restaurants. Tuna live in the tropical and subtropical waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. Atlantic bluefin tuna is rare in the Black and Barents Seas, and Pacific bluefin tuna is rare in the Sea of Japan. Due to overfishing, tuna populations and ranges have decreased significantly; they have practically disappeared from the Black Sea, for example. These schooling pelagic fish travel great distances in search of food. Tuna have a spindle-shaped, elongated body. Along each side of the caudal peduncle runs a large leathery keel, flanked on both sides by two short, weak keels. The dorsal fin has 12 to 14 stiff rays and is sickle-shaped. The second dorsal fin is much shorter and has only soft rays.
