Bogar Squid in Sunflower Oil is a simple, versatile conserva that lets the delicate flavour of the squid take centre stage. Tender pieces are packed in sunflower oil with a little salt, making this an easy choice for tapas, light lunches and quick seafood meals.

With just three ingredients, the emphasis is on texture and flavour. The squid has a mild, gently sweet character, while the sunflower oil adds a smooth richness that suits everything from a slice of crusty bread to a warm bowl of rice. Its straightforward preparation also makes it a useful base for your own favourite seasonings.

For a relaxed tapa, serve at room temperature with a squeeze of lemon, chopped parsley and a pinch of smoked paprika. Offer alongside olives, roasted peppers and good bread, or add the squid to a salad of white beans, cherry tomatoes and red onion for a satisfying lunch.

It works equally well in warm dishes. Toss through pasta with garlic, extra virgin olive oil and fresh herbs, or fold into cooked rice just before serving. If adding to paella, introduce the squid towards the end and warm it briefly, as it is already cooked.

At Spanish Pig, we like this tin for its flexibility: delicious enjoyed simply, and just as useful when you want to build a meal around it. Keep one in the pantry for an easy taste of Spanish seafood, ready whenever inspiration strikes.

Ingredients: squid, sunflower oil, salt.

Lulina Scallops in Sauce are a rich, comforting taste of Galicia in every bite. Made with tender queen scallops—zamburiñas—harvested from the cool Atlantic waters, this conserva is simmered in a traditional salsa gallega: a slow-cooked blend of tomato, onion, olive oil, and a touch of paprika that infuses each scallop with smoky-sweet depth.

Lulina’s scallops are packed by hand in small batches, ensuring each tin delivers restaurant-quality flavour with no shortcuts. The scallops themselves are plump, delicate, and perfectly cooked—never rubbery—while the sauce is thick, vibrant, and deeply savoury. It’s a ready-to-eat delicacy that brings warmth and authenticity to your table with zero prep required.

Enjoy them straight from the tin with crusty bread to mop up the sauce, or heat gently and toss with pasta or rice for a quick but elevated meal. They pair beautifully with a glass of Godello or Mencía, echoing the soul of northwest Spain.

These tender clams are typically preserved in either a light brine or high-quality olive oil, allowing their natural ocean character to shine through. The result is a clean, slightly sweet, and subtly salty bite that transports you straight to the Spanish coast. Unlike mass-produced versions, Lulina’s approach ensures each clam maintains its shape and integrity, offering a consistently elegant experience.

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. Store unopened according to the package directions and consult the label for the full ingredients, allergens and guidance after opening. A good tin makes a memorable small gift for anyone who loves Spanish conservas.

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.

At Spanish Pig, we bring you gourmet conservas that elevate everyday moments.

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.

Product details

La Curiosa identifies this as smoked bonito del norte belly, Thunnus alalunga, in olive oil. It contains fish. Enjoy it as the centrepiece of a conserva tasting with olives, bread and a second tin with a brighter flavour. Check the package for exact ingredients, net weight and complete allergen details.

How to Enjoy:
For a simple yet stunning dish, layer the tuna belly over slices of warm roasted red piquillo peppers (available on SpanishPig.ca), top with a few flakes of sea salt and a splash of the oil from the tin. Serve with crusty bread or atop a light salad of arugula and cherry tomatoes.

Bring a little Spanish sunshine to your next lunch with Coargal Sardines with Lemon. Made in Spain by Conservas Artesanas Gallegas, these sardines pair the savoury character of the fish with fresh lemon for a bright take on a classic conserva. Each 120g tin comes wrapped in colourful illustrated paper, making it as appealing on a tapas table as it is tucked into a thoughtful food gift.

This is an easy tin to build a meal around. Sardines and citrus are natural companions, and the lemon makes this a particularly inviting choice when you want something lively alongside bread, vegetables or a crisp salad. Keep a tin ready for a relaxed lunch, an impromptu aperitivo or an evening when a few carefully chosen ingredients are all you need.

Serving suggestions

For a simple Spanish-style tapa, arrange the sardines on toasted sourdough with thinly sliced red onion, chopped parsley and a few capers. Add a bowl of olives and some piquillo peppers, then let everyone help themselves. For something more substantial, serve them with warm boiled potatoes and green beans, or flake them gently into a white bean salad with celery and fresh herbs.

They also make a delicious open sandwich: spread a little alioli over crusty bread, add the sardines and finish with sliced cucumber or peppery rocket. When preparing pasta, fold the fish through at the end so the pieces retain their shape, then finish with parsley and freshly ground black pepper. Taste before adding more lemon, allowing the citrus already in the tin to guide the seasoning.

Wine pairing

Try a chilled Albariño for its fresh acidity and citrus character, or a dry Verdejo for a lively herbal pairing. A crisp Cava is another lovely option, especially when serving these sardines as part of a varied tapas spread.

Net weight: 120g. Drained weight: 84g. Origin: Spain. Allergen: fish.

There is something irresistible about a good tin of sardines, from the promise inside to the artwork on the lid. This small hanging ornament plays with that familiar shape: little sardine faces peek from a metallic tin, giving an everyday object a mischievous personality. It is a subtle, charming detail that rewards a second look.

We picked it for Spanish Pig because it feels like a miniature tribute to conservas and to the pleasure of finding beauty in ordinary food rituals. Hang it on a kitchen cabinet, a hook by the pantry or a food lover's holiday tree. It also works beautifully tied to a gift bag containing a few carefully chosen tins, crackers and a bottle of olive oil. After the wrapping is gone, the recipient still has a keepsake to display.

Created by the English design company Shoeless Joe, this compact ornament brings a little humour to a room without overwhelming it. It suits a coastal kitchen, a collection of curious objects or a thoughtfully styled shelf. If you love the idea of tinned seafood as much as the taste, this is a small way to show it. It is a decorative piece rather than an edible product, and a lovely gift for the friend who always orders the sardines.

Rosara's Bonito del Norte is a classic Spanish conserva on a generous scale. The producer selects fresh white tuna from the Cantabrian Sea and packs hand cut loins in olive oil. These are natural pieces of fish, with a tender, juicy texture and the clean, mild flavour that makes bonito del norte so versatile. The large 445 ml glass jar lets the loins take centre stage and gives you enough to build an entire meal around the fish.

Serve the bonito at room temperature and lift it carefully from the jar to keep the pieces intact. Arrange it over sliced tomato with piquillo peppers, green olives and a spoonful of its own oil. It also makes a memorable ensaladilla rusa, a composed salad with white beans and red onion, or generous tapas on toasted bread. A squeeze of lemon or a little Sherry vinegar will brighten the plate; start lightly, as the fish is delicious with very little added.

Serving & pairing

Open an Albariño, a dry Txakoli or a crisp Verdejo for a maritime pairing. The wine's acidity cuts through the olive oil while letting the delicate bonito remain the focus. A chilled dry fino Sherry also works beautifully if this is part of a tapas spread with olives and salted almonds. Pair with Rosara piquillo peppers for a particularly Spanish plate.

Product details

The producer lists bonito del norte, olive oil and salt. Contains fish and is listed as gluten free. Jar capacity is 445 ml, net weight 400 g and drained weight 260 g. Refrigerate any remaining fish under its oil after opening and follow the jar's storage directions.
