• Cabo de Peñas - Sardines in pickled Sauce

The tender juicy Pilchardus sardines have been sustainably fished and selected at an optimal time. Pilchardus sardines are particularly prized for their texture and flavour. These sardines have a unique taste that is influenced by the marinade. The Mediterranean Escabeche marinade consists of high-quality vinegar, fine sunflower oil, and a mixture of spices and herbs. The taste is a balanced combination of acidity (from the vinegar), spiciness (from the spices) and a hint of sweetness. Sardines, including Pilchardus sardines, are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, protein and various vitamins and minerals. These fish are a prized delicacy in Portuguese and Spanish cuisine. Their rich flavour and varied preparation options make them a popular ingredient in many traditional dishes and tapas. They are also highly prized for their health benefits and nutritious profile.
