La Curiosa - Large Cockles in Brine

£10.50

Berberechos Al Natural

These large cockles are hand-harvested from Galician waters by local shellfish pickers, then packed simply, 25 to 35 per tin, in a light brine. Firm, meaty and naturally sweet, they have a clean shellfish flavour with a little more richness and depth than smaller cockles.

The brine preserves the cockles' texture and fresh, slightly mineral character without getting in the way. They're excellent straight from the tin with a squeeze of lemon or a shake of vinegar in the British tradition.

These cockles with a little of their brine make for an excellent version of Spaghetti alle vongole you can rustle up from the pantry.

Ingredients: Cockles‍ (cerastoderma edule) ‍(mollusc fish), water and salt.

About La Curiosa

La Curiosa offers a refreshing counterpoint in the Spanish tinned fish landscape—a young brand without multi-generational tales yet deeply connected to Galician canning craft. Founded by Cristobal Fernández, whose mother's 15-year cannery career sparked his fascination, this brand balances respect for tradition with youthful energy.

What makes La Curiosa stand out is their commitment to producing exclusively in Portomar's factories surrounding Ría de Arousa—Galicia's seafood heartland. Their quality Galician conservas maintain time-honoured techniques, including rarely seen processes like fish roasting, while bringing fresh perspective to a traditionally conservative industry.
