Galician Spicy Garlic Mussels are a premium canned seafood delicacy made from carefully selected mussels of the species Mytilus galloprovincialis, cultivated in the nutrient-rich waters of the Galician rías. These mussels are known for their superior size and quality, benefiting from optimal growing conditions in traditional floating rafts.

Each mussel is cleaned and prepared by hand, then lightly fried in olive oil to enhance its texture and flavor. They are subsequently packed individually and covered with a flavorful garlic-based sauce with a spicy touch, creating a bold and aromatic profile that balances richness with gentle heat.

The result is a tender, juicy product with a deep, savory taste, ideal for enjoying straight from the tin or as part of tapas, salads, or gourmet dishes. Crafted using natural ingredients and artisanal methods, it reflects the authenticity of traditional Galician seafood preserves.

La Curiosa’s Large Mussels (6/8 per can) are a premium conserva that showcase the bold flavor and craftsmanship of Galicia’s seafood traditions. These are not your average tinned mussels—each one is plump, meaty, and meticulously hand-packed to preserve its delicate texture and natural richness. Harvested from the pristine waters of the Rías Gallegas, these mussels are sustainably farmed and carefully selected for size and quality before being prepared in a classic escabeche sauce.

The escabeche—a bright, tangy marinade of olive oil, vinegar, paprika, and spices—perfectly complements the mussels’ briny sweetness, adding layers of warmth and depth without overpowering their natural character. The larger size of the 6/8 variety means each bite is satisfyingly substantial, with a velvety mouthfeel and a lingering, savory finish.

These mussels are ideal as the centerpiece of a tapas spread, paired with crusty bread to soak up the sauce or served over warm potatoes with a touch of parsley. They also shine in a salad with roasted red peppers, or alongside a glass of Albariño or a light, chilled vermouth.

La Curiosa is known for its playful, design-forward packaging and commitment to quality—and this tin is no exception. Both visually striking and gastronomically impressive, it’s a go-to choice for those seeking a true taste of Galicia’s sea in every luxurious mouthful. Whether shared with friends or savored solo, La Curiosa’s large mussels are a conservas experience that’s anything but ordinary.

They only use mussels of the species (Mytilus galloprovincialis). These are cultivated on rafts, floating platforms from which ropes hang submerged in the water to which the mussels adhere.

Our estuaries are the world's main source of this mollusk, where they have the best food and grow to a larger size.

For this specific format, we use large specimens taken from the best-located rafts in our estuaries, cleaned and canned by hand one by one.

Once selected, fried in olive oil and lovingly hand-packed, one by one, they are covered with our marinade made with natural ingredients such as natural paprika, black pepper, cloves and bay leaves.

La Curiosa Mussels are a true tribute to the Galician coast—plump, tender, and packed with bold, balanced flavour. Harvested from the nutrient-rich waters of the Rías Baixas, these mussels are carefully steamed and hand-packed in a vibrant escabeche sauce made with olive oil, vinegar, paprika, and a delicate blend of spices.

What sets this conserva apart is La Curiosa’s attention to detail. Each tin is artfully arranged to showcase the natural beauty of the mussels, while the escabeche brings a tangy, smoky depth that complements their natural sweetness. The result is a tinned seafood that’s both refined and full of character—ideal for those who appreciate tradition with a modern edge.

Serve them straight from the tin with crusty bread to soak up the sauce, add them to a salad of roasted potatoes and peppers, or enjoy them with a crisp glass of Albariño or a cold Spanish lager.

La Curiosa Mussels are more than just a pantry staple—they’re a ready-to-eat celebration of coastal Spain, where simple ingredients and thoughtful preparation come together in one seriously satisfying bite.

La Curiosa Mackerel Provenzal Style with Lemon and Bay (Caballa Estilo Provenzal con Limón y Laurel) is a refined and aromatic twist on a classic, blending the richness of Galician mackerel with the brightness of Mediterranean flavours. This conserva is a celebration of balance—fresh, herbal, zesty, and deeply satisfying.

The mackerel is responsibly sourced from the cool Atlantic waters off the coast of Galicia, prized for its firm texture and naturally rich flavour. Once gently cooked, the fillets are preserved in high-quality olive oil infused with Provençal herbs, fresh lemon, and bay leaf. The lemon adds a delicate citrus lift, while the bay lends depth and subtle complexity—evoking the scent of seaside herb gardens and slow-cooked coastal stews.

As with all La Curiosa offerings, each tin is packed with care, bringing together traditional techniques and a bold, contemporary flair. The result is a conserva that feels both comforting and elevated—flavourful without being overpowering, and layered with the warmth of natural aromatics.

Perfect served on its own with good crusty bread, or flaked into a simple grain bowl, salad, or pasta. It’s especially lovely paired with roasted vegetables or creamy white beans. Add a glass of crisp Albariño or a light herbal white and you’ve got an effortlessly elegant meal.

La Curiosa Mackerel Provenzal Style with Lemon and Bay is a thoughtful take on tradition—fresh, fragrant, and full of Mediterranean charm, with a distinctly Galician soul.

La Curiosa's smoked Galician oysters bring a vivid taste of the sea to the tapas table. Four carefully selected oysters are gently smoked and packed in olive oil, preserving their tender, meaty texture while adding a fine aromatic depth. The smoke is a supporting note: the oyster's maritime character remains at the centre. Presented as a 120 ml tin, this is a small, distinctive luxury to open slowly and share with people who appreciate exceptional conservas.

Let the tin come toward room temperature before serving and lift each oyster gently from the oil. Place one on a crisp slice of toasted sourdough with a tiny squeeze of lemon, or serve on a potato chip with a little crème fraîche and chives. A few drops of Sherry vinegar can sharpen the finish; use them sparingly so the oyster remains the star. The oil is delicious brushed onto toast or whisked into a light dressing for a seafood salad.

Serving & pairing

Pour a brisk Albariño or a dry sparkling Cava. Their freshness complements the oyster's saline flavour and clears the palate between bites. For a classic aperitivo, pair with very cold fino Sherry and simple salted almonds. Keep the rest of the plate understated: bread, lemon and perhaps a few good olives are enough.

Product details

La Curiosa describes this conserva as Galician smoked oysters in olive oil, four pieces per tin. It contains mollusks. The invoice lists a 120 ml format. Consult the package for complete ingredients and allergen information, and refrigerate any leftovers according to its label.

La Curiosa brings a new kind of ease to smoked salmon: a beautifully prepared conserva packed in olive oil and ready whenever the moment calls for an aperitivo. Made with Norwegian salmon, it has a tender texture and a gentle smoke that sits comfortably beside the richness of the oil. The 115 g tin is just the right scale for an intimate tapas board or a refined lunch for one or two.

Serve the salmon at room temperature, straight from the tin, with good bread and a wedge of lemon. On a toasted slice, add a little crème fraîche, a few capers and chopped dill for a classic contrast of cream, salt and herbs. It is equally appealing folded into a warm potato salad, laid over a bowl of lentils, or served with cucumber ribbons and crisp radishes. Add the fish near the end of any warm preparation to preserve its soft texture.

Serving & pairing

A dry Albariño or sparkling Cava brings welcome lift to the smoky, oily richness. For an aperitivo, pour a dry fino Sherry and set out salted almonds and olives. If you are building a seafood tasting, let this salmon sit beside a bright, acidic conserva and keep the accompaniments restrained so every tin has its own moment.

Product details

The producer identifies this as Norwegian smoked salmon in olive oil, with a net weight of 115 g. It contains fish.

Ventresca is the prized belly cut of bonito del norte, loved for its delicate layers and lush, almost melting texture. La Curiosa gives this white tuna a gentle smoke before preserving it in olive oil. The result is a striking conserva: rich but balanced, with an elegant smoky note that complements the fish instead of hiding it. It is a special tin for occasions when a simple plate deserves to feel extraordinary.

Open the tin a few minutes before serving and bring the fish toward room temperature so the olive oil can loosen and the aroma can emerge. Lift the belly pieces carefully with a fork and lay them on warm, lightly toasted bread. A thin strip of roasted piquillo pepper, a few drops of lemon and a scatter of chives make a beautiful first bite. For a more substantial dish, arrange the tuna over white beans and ripe tomatoes, or finish a warm potato salad with a spoonful of the oil from the tin.

Serving & pairing

A cool Albariño is a natural partner: its citrus and saline freshness meet the richness of the belly and leave the subtle smoke in focus. Dry fino Sherry also has the clarity for a classic tapas pairing. If you prefer a red, try a lightly chilled, delicate Mencía and keep the accompaniments simple.

Each piece of tuna belly is hand-selected and packed with care, ensuring its buttery texture and clean, oceanic flavour remain intact.
