Serving suggestion: The most common way to serve mojama de bonito is in thin slices of about 2 or 3 mm thick, watered with a yarn of a good extra virgin olive oil that will enhance its flavor. It can be accompanied with fried or toasted almonds. To drink, blond beers with low alcoholic strength, or a white wine such as a fine Jerez is suitable.
The mojama is a salami of tuna (or bonito) that is made by pressing the meat of the fish in thick salt, that is then washed off and allowed to dry in the air during several days. Many compare it to ham and jerky, as the final texture is similar.
