    I don't know what you are talking about, Is this a piece of fresh raw tuna in a sauce ?

    Housekeepers cut is not "crappy quality", but it does need to be cooked slowly in a casserole with some liquid to tenderise it.
    Put it in a casserole with some carrots, onions, garlic, stokc. tomato puree and wine, put the lid on, put it in the oven for 2 hours at 160 degrees. It'll taste fab.
