Tinned Fish Club for March: La Barca Mussels, ICC Saury, and Tenorio Tuna!
La Barca Mussels in Escabeche Sauce
La Barca is dedicated to high-quality, sustainably sourced seafood from the pristine waters of Rías Gallegas, a region in northwest Spain famous for producing some of the world's finest mussels.
This tin features their Mussels in Escabeche, a traditional Galician preparation where plump mussels are marinated in a tangy, spiced vinegar sauce. Once used to preserve seafood for long voyages, escabeche is now beloved for its bright, bold flavors.

ICC Sanma Kabayaki and Nagatanien Ochazuke
We first featured this retro-style tin last summer, and it quickly became a fan favorite! When we had the rare chance to get more, we knew we had to share it. Japan's first canning factory opened in Hokkaido in 1877, marking the start of a seafood tradition that still thrives today.
While Japan's canning industry produces a wide range of high-quality seafood, this Pacific Saury stands out. Prepared in kabayaki style—grilled over white oak coals and glazed in a rich soy-based sauce—this tin delivers deep umami flavor with just the right touch of caramelized sweetness.
Tenorio Filete de Atum Em Azeite - Grande Premio de Honra
For over 60 years, Tenorio has been canning some of the finest tuna from the nutrient-rich waters surrounding the Azores, a volcanic archipelago in the middle of the Atlantic. This region has a long tradition of pole-and-line fishing, a sustainable method that reduces bycatch and supports healthy tuna populations. Tenorio's commitment to quality is evident in every tine, preserving the firm texture and naturally rich flavor of their tuna—just high-quality fish, oil, and a pinch of salt. A true taste of the Atlantic!
