JewEl in THE crown Bonito Tuna from Spain Tuna is one of the most popular foods we sell. It may seem surprising because here in the U.S., tinned tuna is a low-end commodity usually sold in supermarkets. In Spain it’s at the complete opposite of the culinary spectrum. Tuna in tins, especially from the fourth-generation family firm Ortiz, is one of the jewels in Spain's culinary crown. Ortiz's fish are all line caught—not netted—hand filleted at sea and quickly tinned in good olive oil. The olive oil is key. It adds flavor and makes the texture silky over time, unlike water, which tends to leach flavors from the fish.

Mackerel Firm, perfect fillets of mackerel whose flavor is located somewhere between the sweetness of tuna and the richness of sardines. It’s rare to find tinned mackerel of this quality.

Sardines There are actually dozens of different fish sold as sardines in the U.S. Most are either brislings from Norway or herring from the North Atlantic. While they aren't bad, they don't come close to the flavor of true pilchards like these. And unlike Norwegian sardines, these are never smoked, so the full flavor of the fish comes through. Four or five tender, perfect sardines, nested in a tin of olive oil. Outstanding. P-SAR 125 g $8 2 or more $6 ea
