6 (six) assorted tins of imported Portuguese produced Mackerel(Cavala) varieties.  This random assortment is a curated flight that highlights the different production methods and flavors throughout Portugal. Mackerel is a firm & rich tasting oily fish with high health & wellness attributes, but when tinned the flavor mellows.  Tinned mackerel is great when served directly out of a can or can be used in recipes due the firmness that flakes more like tuna than sardines.  A Pairing of crackers are included for an easy snack. Shipping included! VARIETIES INCLUDE: Whole Mackerel - BELA & Manna use the whole mackerel with skin & bones(both edible), but no head, tails, or scales.  Amazing presentation and plating due to the striking pattern and great for coating and frying Mackerel Filets - the most common tinned method due to the size that lends itself very well for the inclusion of recipes like salads, soft tacos, or omelets. FLAVORS VARIETIES INCLUDE: Piri-Piri - Portugal's most famous hot-pepper!  Mild by world hot pepper scales, but has a long finish that is great with a smoke hinting and perfect accompaniment for tinned fish.  Can be aroma or the actual pepper.

The sometimes sweet and sometimes savory TOMATO is a perfect complement to the Sardina Pilchardus, the original sardine.  When produced in the expert hands of the Portuguese and Spanish canneries that dot the seascape from the Algarve to the Galician coast sardines in tomato are a special treat.  The acidity of the tomato interacts with the qualities of the fish that support the taste in a entirely different way than the oils and escabeche flavors that are regularly found in these regions.   In this pairing 1+1 is definitely greater than 2 on the taste bud scale! Perhaps the best attribute is that these cans can be enjoyed straight from the can, but also are ready for preparation in all sorts of dishes from a cataplana to pasta con la sarde.   We choose a random 6 cans from the array of choices for $36.  If 6 is not enough double up to get the an even greater selection, or pair with our spicy tinfest random-6!
