CONSERVAS LA NARVAL
Galicia, Spain
In the northwest of Spain lies Galicia; dotted with little bays, small fishing fleets and home to family-owned conservas company, La Narval. Founded in 1966 n the Ría de Arousa, where the most exquisite Spanish seafood is captured, La Narval is currently run by the third generation.
La Narval represents everything we love about artisan Spanish producers. The seafood is caught just outside the factory door, meticulously cleaned and packed by hand. Their sauces are made to family recipes using local ingredients, and the flavours are exceptional.
Seafood conservas is the perfect bar food; a bag of crisps, a tin of mussels and toothpicks. It’s also popping upon café menus as a healthy, high protein option for breakfast. A slice of sourdough, sardines and away you go.
Mix through pastas, salads, sandwiches - the lot. If you’re wanting to dip into the tinned fish trend, La Narval is the place to start.
