La Curiosa - Mackerel Fillets with Lemon Thyme

£6.75

Una Receta de La Provenza - A Recipe from Provence

Wild thyme from Galicia's coastal hills meet Atlantic mackerel in this pairing that feels inevitable once you try it. The herb adds lemony aromatics that brighten the fish's natural oils whilst contributing gentle complexity to make a perfect interesting tin.

The mackerel keeps its firm texture and clean flavour whilst the thyme works its magic. This creates something that tastes both familiar and fresh—good fish made more interesting by regional herbs. Serve warm with buttered potatoes or flake through a pasta salad with provencal olives and good tomatoes.

Ingredients:Mackerel (Scomber japonicus or Scomber colias) (fish), olive oil (23.8%), lemon thyme, 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.

Each Spanish tinned delicacy features seafood from Galician waters at peak seasonality, following the natural rhythms of the sea rather than market demands. Their approach is decidedly hands-on—pieces carefully selected and positioned by skilled workers to ensure proper presentation and flavour, with sauces made from traditional recipes using only natural ingredients.
