José Gourmet | Premium - Mackerel in Brava Sauce
$14.99
Shake up your aperitif customs with a bold recipe that combines the best of sea and land: small mackerel in Brava sauce from José Gourmet. Known for disrupting the world of gourmet canned goods, the Portuguese brand delivers an intense creation here, inspired by the famous Spanish patatas bravas.
Sustainably caught in the pristine waters of the Atlantic, these prime small fish are cleaned, trimmed, and manually canned one by one by skilled artisans. They are then topped with a creamy artisan Brava sauce, made with a masterful balance of extra virgin olive oil, tomato, garlic, and a selection of peppers and chilies. A smoky and spicy infusion that awakens the taste buds without ever masking the delicate iodized flavor of the fish
Cannery's note: This recipe highlights chinchard (horse mackerel), a cousin of traditional mackerel highly prized in the Iberian Peninsula for its firm flesh and delicate flavor.
Each can is wrapped in unique artist packaging, illustrated by Portuguese artist Ana Ferraz, making this preserve a true gastronomic collector's item.
_________________________________________________________________
- The tapas ritual: To be enjoyed at room temperature, directly from the can, on a slice of crusty country bread.
- Back to basics: Serve them on a bed of homemade pan-fried potatoes for a textured thematic pairing.
- In the kitchen: Gently incorporate them into a dish of white rice or sautéed vegetables to instantly add a sunny dimension

- Wine pairing: A young, smooth, and fruity Iberian red wine (like a Mencía from Galicia or a light red from Douro). Its red fruit notes ideally complement the kick of the sauce or an artisan IPA beer, whose bitterness and citrus notes perfectly complement the garlic and chili.
