Sardines in E.V. Olive Oil - France

4 oz Tin - Brittany, France

The sardines from Connétable, always packed in extra-virgin olive oil, are some of our all-time favorites.

Serving Suggestions:

Like the Brits, try serving the classic sardines on toast - any plain, toasted bread works well. Just plop a sardine on top, and use a fork to flatten it onto the toast. Makes a great base for a light dinner - just add a salad, some grilled vegetables, or whatever you have handy. Sardines can also be a flavorful addition to salads, and the adventurous have been known to add them to omelets.

About the Producer:

Founded in 1853 in Douarnenez, Brittany, on France's northwestern coast, Connétable is the oldest canning facility in the world. For over 150 years, Connétable has perpetuated a tradition of quality and innovation, never compromising where their products are concerned.

These sardines are processed the old-fashioned way, by hand, with local women workers skilled in picking only superior fish. Hand selection is followed by cleaning and a 24-hour draining period before filleting, until finally, the fish are packed in high quality, extra-virgin olive oil.
