José Gourmet - Spiced Small Sardines in Extra Virgin Olive Oil

£5.95

Spices arrived from distant ports to meet sardines who never expected to become famous. These are dressed up with Portuguese piri-piri that brings spiciness to the party. The heat complements the fish, adding a kick that builds with each mouthful. Using smaller sardines means more tenderness and delicate texture than their larger relatives could manage.

The olive oil does more than preserve; it carries the spice throughout the tin, perfect for those who enjoy a bit of fire with their seafood. Roast some cherry tomatoes with a spoonful of the oil until they slump ever so slightly, then tip over the contents of this tin, mingle minimally and serve with a warm baguette.

Ingredients: Sardines (Sardina Pilchardus) (70%), extra virgin olive oil (21.4%), spices (piri-piri, carrot, cucumber, cloves, laurel) (7.2%), 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.
