Spicy Sardines With Carrot and Pickle in Olive Oil (Sardines Épicées Aux Carottes et Cornichons à l’Huile d’Olive) - 4.4 oz (125 g), by Berthe, from Portugal.
These Sardines offer a bold and satisfying taste experience. The sardines bring robustness, complemented by chili peppers for heat. Carrot adds sweetness and texture, while pickles provide tanginess. All balanced by the smooth richness of olive oil, it's a harmonious blend of flavors.
Sardina pilchardus, or the "European pilchard," is a small, oily fish that thrives in the northeastern Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Growing up to 15 - 20 centimeters, it forms large schools near the surface and feeds on plankton and small crustaceans. Highly valued in Portugal, Spain, and France, the fish are sustainably caught using purse seine nets, preserving the seabed and allowing smaller fish to replenish stocks. They are then commonly preserved through canning or smoking.
Berthe, an esteemed canned fish producer, originated in Portugal in 1853. They select the best fish from the Matosinhos fish market, thoroughly process them, and promptly can them through Ramirez & Ca. (Filhos) SA, one of the world's oldest canneries dating back to 1906. Tailored for the French market, Berthe's tins feature French labeling with an iconic girl on the front, symbolizing Lyonnaise literature. Today, Berthe is part of the Ramirez portfolio.
