Don Reinaldo - Small Sardines with Chilli in Olive Oil
Sardines in Olive Oil with Chilli Pepper.
Imagine the smallest sardines you'd ever see, lined up like silver needles in rich olive oil. That's what awaits when you open these Galician treasures.
The chilli offers a suggestion of warmth that grows as you eat, like afternoon sun in Conservas Lou's Ribeira home.
Serve with a dollop of lemon-zest yoghurt for brilliant contrasts, or atop rice cakes with bitter leaves for perfect picnic fare. The oil deserves attention too—spoon it over avocado or finish potato dishes where its gentle warmth shines.
These small fish have fed Galician communities for generations—everyday food elevated through careful handling and time served technique.
Ingredients:Sardines (Sardina pilchardus) (fish), olive oil (29%), chilli pepper, and salt.

Don Reinaldo, from Conservas Lou in coastal Ribeira, brings Galicia's seafood treasures to the tin with remarkable clarity of flavour. When Manuel Reinaldo Loureiro Pérez revived his family's 1880s cannery in the 1990s, he created something genuinely special.
Their smoked ventresca (tuna belly) carries the gentle perfume of beechwood smoke that enhances the fish's natural richness. Their sardinillas come in various compelling recipes each showcasing the clean, delicate flavour of these small sardines from Galicia's nutrient-rich waters.
The brand's approach remains reassuringly artisanal. Each tin is hand-packed without preservatives or additives, which explains their limited production and why these tins can be challenging to find. This dedication to purity means every bite offers a genuine taste of Galicia's remarkable seafood traditions.
