How is the albacore canned?
The albacore is thawed very slowly, filleted, and packed into the can raw. Then 12 grains of salt (220 mg) are added. Our original albacore in the can has approximately 50-70 mg. of salt per 2 oz. serving. The can is sealed and cooked once for 110 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. Our canners, Russ and Mike Edwards, run Pelican Packers, and can both our salmon and tuna products.
