José Gourmet - Spiced Small Mackerel in Extra Virgin Olive Oil

£5.95

Spiced Small Mackerel in Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Traveller's spices from Portugal's trading past transform these mackerel into something with a real deep and flavourful kick. The smaller fish means more tenderness, like fewer words make for deeper meaning. Extra virgin olive oil marries everything together. Flake these through pasta that's still steaming with as much of the oil as you prefer, or, like us, eat them straight from the tin with salted crisps and your beer of choice. Uses the same little fish as the smoked and plain varieties but with a different flavour profile. The spice mixture contains subtle notes of paprika and bay leaf, complementing the fish's natural oils without masking them.

Ingredients: Mackerel (Scomber japonicus) (70%), extra virgin olive oil (28%), chili (1.2%), salt.

About José Gourmet

José Gourmet connects Portugal's small-scale canneries with international markets through carefully selected premium Portuguese tinned fish. Named for the Hebrew word meaning "one who adds," the brand brings added value to traditional seafood.

Their collection features the Atlantic's quality offerings—Portuguese sardines with clean flavors; mackerel that maintains its character; and traditional tuna preserves that reflect Portugal's fishing expertise.

Designer Luís Mendonça shaped their identity by commissioning artwork from Portuguese illustrators for each label. These distinctive tins are instantly recognisable in specialty shops across Europe and North America. Served simply—with bread, citrus, and a glass of wine—these artisanal conservas deliver an authentic taste of Portugal's coastal traditions.
