Sardines in Olive Oil 3/4

At La Curiosa, they don’t just make preserves; they craft authentic jewels of the sea in a tin. And these sardines are clear proof of that. Sourced from the interior of the Arousa estuary, one of the most privileged areas of the Atlantic, they are caught in July and August, just when the sardine reaches its optimal point of fat, flavor, and texture.
The fishing takes place at dawn, with an empty stomach, which allows for more delicate cleaning and a much finer final result. After careful selection, the sardines are placed by hand and left to rest in olive oil, refining over time to achieve meat that is firm, juicy, and surprisingly smooth.
The result? An elegant, flavorful, and balanced sardine—the kind that needs nothing else... although it certainly welcomes company.
How to enjoy them (as they deserve): Straight from the tin, with good bread and a cold glass of wine, or if you prefer to do a little cooking, try them on a warm piece of toast with salted butter or grated tomato.
