Description
Wild Atlantic sardines preserved with lemon and extra virgin olive oil. This 125g tin combines plump fish with a bright citrus accent.
Craft & Origin
Jose Gourmet sources wild sardines off the Portuguese coast, choosing catch at peak fat levels. The fish are pre-cooked and hand-packed with a slice of lemon, extra virgin olive oil, and sea salt. During curing, citrus oil infuses the olive oil, balancing the natural fat of the fish. This process reflects Portuguese conserva tradition, pairing rich pelagic species with citrus.
Flavor & Texture
Notes of citrus peel and olive oil. Firm, flaky texture.
How to Use
Serve on toasted sourdough or flake over grilled vegetables.
Why We Like It
A subtle citrus integration that brightens Portuguese sardines.
