Canned Yellowfin Tuna in Water, Drained

EverydayCannedDrained

Canned yellowfin tuna in water is a precooked, shelf-stable protein source made from the mild-flavored yellowfin tuna species. When drained, it provides a lean, flaky texture with minimal fat, concentrating its high protein content (typically 20-25g per 100g) while reducing sodium compared to oil-packed varieties. This versatile pantry staple is widely used in salads, sandwiches, and casseroles, offering convenience without the stronger 'fishy' taste often associated with darker tuna species like skipjack.
