Among the tinned seafood options, garfish (Belone belone) stands out as one of the most sustainable species. This long and slender fish, resembling a needle, boasts a striking silver skin, a distinctive flavour, and a firm texture.
For those who appreciate sardines and mackerel, this offering, preserved in Portuguese olive oil, is a must-try addition to your next tinned seafood spread. These delicate garfish are carefully preserved in olive oil to highlight their mild, fresh flavour and tender texture.
 
Serving Suggestion and Wine Pairing: Enjoy them with a squeeze of lemon on a charcuterie board or folded into a light pasta dish. Pair with a Portuguese Arinto for its bright acidity or a cool-climate Victorian Pinot Gris.
