No fancy assortment with lots of extras, but the essential sardine base from which all the brand’s other varieties are derived.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp id=\"speakable-definition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSardines in Olive Oil\u003c\/strong\u003e by A Banca da Sardinha are our best-selling classic from the brand: 70 percent sardine fillet, plus olive oil and a pinch of salt—there’s nothing more in this 120 g tin. It is the benchmark against which all of the brand’s spicier and smoked varieties are measured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSimple, tender, velvety\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo lemon, no piri piri, no smoke: this sardine shows itself as it is, letting the olive oil take center stage. Simple, tender, velvety—that’s how this tin tastes from the very first bite, without the need for a single artificial flavoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe olive oil supports the fish instead of overpowering it, and that is exactly where the art of this supposedly simple recipe lies: 2 ingredients are enough when both are of high quality. It is at its purest enjoyed straight from the tin with an after-work beer, or gently mashed on toasted bread with a splash of lemon juice, or even in a quick pasta dish with garlic and chili flakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you prefer more freshness, reach for the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sardinha-sardinen-mit-zitrone-in-olivenoel\"\u003esardines with lemon in olive oil\u003c\/a\u003e; if you prefer smoke, try the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sardinha-geraeucherte-sardinen\"\u003esmoked sardines\u003c\/a\u003e from the same producer.

Nothing raw goes into the tin, which distinguishes this preserve from industrially produced versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacked into the tins by hand and just as carefully wrapped by hand in the attractive colorful paper, each tin leaves the workshop only after several manual steps. Caught using purse seine fishing, it is certified to the MSC standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor food safety, Mediterran Food \u0026amp; Beverage also relies on clear, documented standards, so you can be sure that every tin tastes just as good as the last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNumber two among many recipes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Banca da Sardinha is managed by the Lisbon-based company Mediterran Food \u0026amp; Beverage, which has owned the brand since 2007 and expanded its range to include many recipes, from plain to spicy.
