Cured Marcona Piure
The flavor that startles Western chefs and captivates Japanese palates.
Tunicate from Marcona's intertidal zone, cured in salt and Yauca botija olive oil.
Origin
Piure is the bivalve-tunicate that grows attached to rocks like an orange kidney. Few Peruvian cooks work with it. Marcona's local fishermen have known it forever.
