In Spain and Portugal, tinned fish has been a culinary delicacy for generations, and today this tradition is winning over the rest of Europe. This book immerses you in the world behind the colourful tins-from the fishers and artisanal producers to the rich flavours of the sea. The fish is caught at the right moment and preserved locally, ensuring maximum flavour, high nutritional value, and a smaller ecological footprint. No waste, a long shelf life, and often sourced from sustainable, small-scale fisheries. Conservas is both an inspiration book and a cookbook, offering ideas for countless snacks and dishes with anchovies, sardines, tuna, mackerel, mussels, shrimp, and more. For anyone who wants to cook deliciously, consciously, and creatively-straight from the can, with impressive results.
