Encontramo-nos à beira-mar, sob o sol português. Vamos abrir a lata juntos.
Estas sardinhas do Atlântico, capturadas em estado selvagem, são enlatadas à mão, originárias de Matosinhos, Portugal, e conservadas num rico e tradicional molho de tomate português.
Cracked one open for lunch and the hand-packed sardines held together beautifully in that thick tomato sauce, not mushy at all. You can taste the Atlantic in every bite. This is exactly what tinned fish should be.
Cracked one open over rice for lunch and the tomato sauce is genuinely rich, not watery like most tinned fish I've tried. The sardines themselves are meaty and tender, and you can tell they were handled with care from the way they hold together.
The sauce is thick and rich enough that I almost didn't need to add anything, and the sardines themselves are firm and meaty. Cracked the tin open on toast for lunch and it felt like a proper Portuguese moment.
