Salted, oiled, cured, adored—a bountiful mouthful with classic character, sizable flavor, and velvety firm texture. This splashy seafood is rich, hearty, tender, and zippy.
A natural masterwork, our savory sardines are divine directly from the tin. Or for an extraordinary feast, add a spritz of lemon, a pinch of paprika, fire up the BBQ, and savor a charcoal grilled delight. When crisp, this sterling fish is easy-eating finger food.
Sardines are the most plentiful fish in the world…enjoy them often in a variety of styles.
“The sardines strolled along the Atlantic coast, caressing, up shore, down shore. And, from laughing, stretching, shaking and wriggling so much, the coast became as we know it to be today.” – JOSÉ Gourmet
