Responsible consumers will drive responsible production of seafood. The seafood system is complex, difficult to understand and impossible to predict. Eat Blue? is designed to give you the confidence to eat seafood without compromise or guilt and celebrates life below water by promoting local, underutilized and healthy species of fish.
Part of the problem is the large scale industrial fishing operations that operate outside the scope and influence of national governments in international waters. According to National Geographic, industrial-scale fishing covers more than 55 percent of the ocean, and we have little regulation over their fishing practices.

Be among the first in the world to try delicious cell-cultured seafood products when they become available in select markets starting the second half of 2021. Here is a sneak-peak at the world’s first fish tacos made with cell-based yellowtail amberjack from BlueNalu’s culinary demonstration in December 2019.
Yield: 6 to 8 servings
* Preferred is Negra Modelo, but any Mexican beer will work
**cell-based seafood coming soon!
Mix the flour, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Gradually add in the beer while whisking. Set aside and let the batter rest for 15 minutes before using.
Press the tofu to release excess water to achieve a firmer, denser block of tofu. To do this, wrap the tofu in paper towels followed by a thick kitchen towel and place it on a cutting board with several heavy cookbooks on top. Let sit for 20 minutes. Once pressed, cut into strips.
In a large skillet, over medium heat, add enough oil to reach a depth of 1-inch. Heat the oil until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F or when the end of a wooden spoon sizzles when inserted into the oil.
On a large plate, combine the flour and salt. Season the fish or tofu pieces all over with salt and pepper and coat with the flour. Working in batches, dip the pieces in the beer batter and coat on both sides. Fry in the hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
Assemble tacos with the tortillas and deep-fried fish or tofu and top each with shredded cabbage, tomatillo salsa, and pickled jalapenos and onions, if desired.
