Los Peperetes Sardines in Hot Olive Oil take the beloved Spanish classic and give it a bold, fiery twist. Sourced from the cool, nutrient-rich waters off the Galician coast, these sardines are carefully selected for their quality, size, and texture. Once steamed and cleaned by hand, they’re packed in high-quality Spanish olive oil infused with chilli—creating a conserva that’s both comforting and invigorating.
The result is a beautifully balanced tin: the natural richness and umami of the sardines meet the warmth of the spiced oil, creating layers of flavour that build with each bite. The heat is not overpowering, but lingers gently on the palate, perfectly complementing the fish’s soft texture and clean, briny finish. It's a conserva that appeals equally to spice lovers and sardine purists.
Like all of Los Peperetes' products, these sardines are prepared in small batches using traditional Galician methods, with each fish arranged by hand to preserve its integrity and presentation. Their commitment to craftsmanship and quality has earned them widespread recognition, and this particular tin is a favourite among those looking for something with a bit more character.
Serve these warm or at room temperature, spooned over crusty bread or stirred into pasta, rice, or even a warm potato salad. They also shine on a tapas board alongside pickles, olives, and a glass of chilled Albariño or vermouth.
For anyone who enjoys a little heat with their seafood, Los Peperetes Sardines in Hot Olive Oil deliver a perfect blend of tradition and spice—bringing the soul of Galicia and a dash of fire straight to your plate.
