Donato De Santis Puts Oven Control at the Forefront of Holiday Vitel Toné as Anchovy-Boosted Sauces Trend

The Argentine classic hinges on a balanced, creamy tonnata many outlets now bolster with anchovies.

Overview

  • In a new Instagram video highlighted by La Voz, Donato De Santis says a stable, precise oven temperature is key to tender, evenly cooked peceto, recommending a sear, gentle roast, full chill, and very thin slicing.
  • His tonnata follows traditional components of tuna, egg yolks or mayonnaise, capers, anchovies, olive oil, and an acidic touch, with optional Dijon mustard for extra depth.
  • Recent recipes from Los Andes, TN.com.ar, and Diario Uno center the sauce as the defining element and increasingly call for anchovies to intensify flavor without added salt.
  • Guides emphasize practical timing: blend to a smooth texture with broth or lemon to adjust, chill the sauce, serve it cold over chilled slices, and refrigerate safely for days.
  • Social feeds continue to circulate variations, including a viral Agus Liporace pionono filled with a chicken toné-style mixture that adapts the classic into bite-size servings.
