La Curiosa – Sardinas Picantes en aceite de oliva

Small sardines with plenty of character and a pleasantly spicy finish: Sardinas Picantes en aceite de oliva by La Curiosa combine tender, carefully selected sardines with high-quality olive oil and natural guindilla chilli. The result is an authentic Galician fish preserve with delicate maritime flavour and an appealing touch of heat.

What makes La Curiosa distinctive is its combination of traditional Galician preserving craftsmanship and a modern, creative approach. The sardines are selected during the fishing season and meticulously cleaned by hand. They are then toasted according to an old traditional method, giving them their characteristic texture and helping them retain their shape. Each sardine is subsequently placed into the tin by hand and covered with high-quality olive oil. Natural guindilla chilli provides the pleasantly spicy character.

The product is deeply rooted in the maritime culture of Galicia. La Curiosa sources its sardines using the traditional selective “Xeito” fishing method in the Ría de Arousa, a fishing tradition closely connected to the region’s coastal heritage.

Enjoy these spicy sardines straight from the tin as a tapa or sophisticated aperitif. They are excellent on toasted bread, in pintxos and small starters, or as a flavourful addition to salads. They can also add character to potatoes, rice and pasta dishes. The aromatic olive oil is ideal for drizzling over bread, vegetables or Mediterranean-inspired dishes.

La Curiosa brings a taste of contemporary Galician preserving culture to the table – traditionally crafted, closely connected to its coastal origins and enhanced with natural guindilla chilli for a distinctive and pleasantly spicy experience.
