La Brujula - Small Mussels in Escabeche

£7.95

La Brújula - Mejillones En Escabeche Nø130

The mussels in this tin are plump and sweet, harvested from the clean waters of Galicia’s Ría de Arousa. They’re steam-shucked, cleaned, and gently fried, then packed in a sharp, aromatic escabeche that cuts through the richness and adds a bright, tangy and bold kick. The sauce isn’t just a backdrop; it’s part of the experience, soaking right into the mussels and giving them a zingy, almost citrusy finish.

Let them sit at kitchen temperature for a few minutes so the flavours reveal themselves, then eat them straight from the tin with good bread. The escabeche is bold but balanced. Pair with a salty snack for the traditional experience, or with warm boiled potatoes for a simple tapa.

Awarded a Great Taste Award in 2024.

Ingredients: Mussels‍ ‍(mollusc), olive oil, sunflower oil, vinegar, spices and salt.

About La Brújula

La Brújula was founded in 1999 in Ribadumia, in Galicia’s Rías Baixas, building on a family background in seafood. They work with what’s close: shellfish from the Galician rías and fish from the Cantabrian Sea, packed when it’s in season and at its best.

Everything is done by hand. The Damas del Mar clean, sort, and place each fish into the tin, keeping things consistent. There’s no dressing it up either - just seafood, olive oil or brine, and salt.

The name is The Compass and it points you in the right direction. It’s about knowing where the product comes from and not interfering too much once you have it.

They’ve become one of the reference points for high-end conservas in Spain, winning multiple awards. Not because they push for it, but because the tins speak for themselves.
