ABC+ - Portugal

A Little Portuguese Fish with a Bold, Spicy Personality

They call it Brava. We call it delicious. And after trying this combination of Portuguese horse mackerel, red pepper, chili, and garlic, you'll understand why.

These Horse Mackerel in Brava Sauce by ABC+ bring together one of Portugal's most beloved everyday fish and a creamy, slightly spicy sauce that's practically begging to be soaked up with a good piece of bread.

The fish is small but full of character, the sauce is rich and vibrant, and the balance between sweetness, garlic, and gentle heat makes this one of those conservas that's surprisingly difficult to stop eating.

At Ibérico Taste, we love discovering products that take familiar ingredients and give them an unexpected twist. And this is exactly the kind of tin we'd open when we're in the mood for something a little more adventurous.

Carapau: A Portuguese Seafood Classic

Horse mackerel, known as carapau in Portuguese, is a staple of Portugal's coastal cuisine. You'll find it grilled, fried, marinated, and enjoyed in countless traditional preparations throughout the country.

But not all horse mackerel are the same.

For this conserva, ABC+ selects the smallest horse mackerel available at the market, choosing them for their particularly concentrated flavor and nutritional value.

These little fish deliver a satisfying seafood taste that stands up beautifully to the bold flavors of Brava sauce.

It's a combination that feels distinctly Portuguese while bringing a playful, modern touch to traditional tinned seafood.

Brava Sauce: Creamy, Garlicky, and Just a Little Spicy

Let's be clear about one thing: the sauce is a big part of what makes this tin so special.

Made with red pepper, chili, and garlic, ABC+'s Brava sauce has a beautiful bright orange color and a smooth, creamy texture.

The red pepper contributes sweetness, the garlic brings savory depth, and the chili adds just enough heat to keep things interesting without overpowering the fish.

The result is a wonderfully balanced sauce that's flavorful rather than aggressively spicy.

And here's our advice: don't leave a single drop behind. Whether you have crusty bread, potatoes, or rice nearby, you'll want something to soak up every last bit.

Small Fish, Big Flavor

One of the things we particularly appreciate about this recipe is how well the fish and sauce complement each other.

Horse mackerel has a naturally pronounced flavor, and the smaller fish selected by ABC+ bring plenty of character to every bite.

Rather than masking that flavor, the Brava sauce adds layers of sweetness, warmth, and creaminess that make the fish even more enjoyable.

It's bold without being overwhelming, spicy without being too hot, and rich without losing the personality of the seafood.

For us, that's what makes a well-designed conserva: every ingredient has a purpose, and everything works together.

How We'd Enjoy It at Ibérico Taste

Our first choice? Warm, crusty bread. Lots of it. Spoon the horse mackerel and its Brava sauce over thick slices of toasted sourdough. The bread absorbs that creamy, slightly spicy sauce beautifully, and it's probably the simplest way to enjoy the tin.

We'd also love to serve it as part of a Spanish and Portuguese tapas board, alongside spicy pickles, olives, and a few slices of good cured meat. The acidity of the pickles provides a fantastic contrast to the richness of the sauce.

For a more substantial meal, try adding the fish and sauce to warm white rice. The Brava sauce does most of the seasoning for you, creating a flavorful seafood rice dish with very little effort.

And if you're looking for an easy appetizer to impress friends, serve it in a small dish with toasted bread on the side. Just make sure there's enough bread for everyone.

• Made with small horse mackerel, known as carapau in Portugal.
• ABC+ selects the smallest fish for their concentrated flavor and nutritional value.

Discover One of Portugal's Lesser-Known Atlantic White Fish

We're always excited when we discover a conserva made with a fish you don't see every day. And Croaker in Extra Virgin Olive Oil by ABC+ is exactly that kind of find.

Croaker is a delicate Atlantic white fish with a mild, clean flavor and a pleasantly firm texture. ABC+ keeps things beautifully simple, preserving carefully prepared fillets in premium extra virgin olive oil. No complicated sauces or overpowering spices, just good fish and good olive oil.

At Ibérico Taste, we have a particular appreciation for conservas like this. Sometimes the most interesting products aren't the ones with the longest ingredient lists, but those where the quality of the seafood speaks for itself.

Atlantic Croaker: A Delicate White Fish Worth Discovering

If you're familiar with sardines, mackerel, or tuna but haven't tried croaker before, this is a great opportunity to discover something different.

Known as corvina in Portuguese, croaker is appreciated for its delicate flavor and firm, flaky white flesh. Compared with oilier fish such as sardines or mackerel, it offers a milder seafood experience that we think will appeal to anyone who enjoys good white fish.

For this recipe, ABC+ sources croaker from Atlantic coastal waters using sustainable fishing methods, with a focus on preserving the natural qualities of the fish.

What we particularly like is that the recipe doesn't try to transform the croaker into something else. The fish remains the star, with extra virgin olive oil playing a supporting role.

Traditional Portuguese Canning, Done with Care

One of the details that makes this conserva special is the way ABC+ prepares the fish before it reaches the tin.

Following a traditional Portuguese method, the croaker is first gently steam-cooked. This helps set the proteins and remove excess moisture, allowing the fish to maintain a firmer, more pleasant texture during the canning process.

After cooking, the fish is carefully cleaned by hand before the fillets are packed in extra virgin olive oil.

It's a thoughtful process that prioritizes texture and the natural quality of the seafood. Rather than rushing production, ABC+ focuses on small batches and careful preparation.

For us, that's one of the things that makes traditional Portuguese conservas so interesting. There's real knowledge behind even the simplest-looking tin.

Why Extra Virgin Olive Oil Makes the Difference

When you're working with a delicate white fish like croaker, the preserving medium matters.

ABC+ uses premium extra virgin olive oil to complement the fish without overwhelming its naturally mild flavor. The oil adds smoothness and richness while helping preserve the delicate structure of the fillets.

There's something particularly satisfying about a conserva that doesn't need much else. You can appreciate the flavor of the fish, the quality of the olive oil, and the care taken during preparation.

And don't forget about the oil left in the tin. We'd happily drizzle it over bread, boiled potatoes, or a simple salad.

How We'd Enjoy It at Ibérico Taste

Our first choice? Toasted sourdough with a little lemon. Place a few pieces of croaker over warm, crusty bread, drizzle with some of the extra virgin olive oil from the tin, and finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon. Simple, but absolutely delicious.

We'd also recommend serving it with boiled baby potatoes, flaky sea salt, and fresh parsley. It's a classic combination that allows the delicate flavor of the fish to shine.

For something lighter, try adding the fillets to a fresh salad with tomatoes, cucumber, and a simple vinaigrette.

And if you're putting together a Portuguese conservas tasting, we'd definitely include this tin alongside sardines or mackerel. It's a great way to appreciate how different the flavors and textures of tinned seafood can be.

Why We Love It

• Atlantic white fish with a mild, delicate flavor.
• Croaker sourced from Atlantic coastal waters using sustainable methods.
• Firm, flaky fillets with a pleasant texture.
• Traditionally steam-cooked before canning to preserve the fish's structure.
• Carefully cleaned by hand and packed in premium extra virgin olive oil.

A Taste of Traditional Portuguese Seafood Stew, Straight from the Tin

Some recipes have a way of making you feel like you're sitting at a seaside restaurant in Portugal. And that's exactly what we love about this Octopus in Caldeirada Sauce by ABC+.

Tender octopus meets a rich, comforting sauce made with tomato, onion, and garlic, three simple ingredients that form the foundation of so many traditional Portuguese dishes. The result is full of flavor, wonderfully savory, and surprisingly close to the experience of enjoying a homemade seafood stew.

At Ibérico Taste, we have a particular appreciation for conservas that stay connected to their culinary roots. And this is one of those tins that reminds us why Portuguese seafood traditions are so special.

Caldeirada: One of Portugal's Most Beloved Seafood Traditions

If you've ever traveled through Portugal, there's a good chance you've come across caldeirada, a traditional seafood stew that's been part of Portuguese coastal cooking for generations.

Made with fish or seafood, vegetables, and a flavorful cooking broth, caldeirada is a wonderful example of how simple ingredients can create something truly memorable.

Every region and family has its own way of preparing it, but the idea remains the same: good seafood, carefully balanced ingredients, and plenty of flavor.

ABC+ takes inspiration from this tradition and brings the familiar flavors of caldeirada into a tin, making it possible to enjoy a little taste of Portugal without spending hours preparing a stew.

Tender Octopus with Tomato, Onion, and Garlic

Octopus, known as polvo in Portuguese, holds a special place in Portugal's gastronomy. From grilled octopus to traditional stews, it's an ingredient that appears in some of the country's most recognizable seafood dishes.

What makes this recipe particularly appealing is the way ABC+ pairs octopus with the classic ingredients of a Portuguese caldeirada.

The tomato provides a rich, slightly sweet base, the onion adds depth and softness, and the garlic brings that unmistakable savory character we associate with Mediterranean cooking.

Together, they create a sauce that complements the octopus without hiding its distinctive seafood flavor.

It's comforting, aromatic, and exactly the kind of recipe we enjoy having ready in the pantry for those moments when we want something special without too much effort.

Traditional Portuguese Flavor Without the Cooking

One of the things we appreciate most about good conservas is how they make traditional recipes so accessible.

A homemade caldeirada can take time, from preparing the seafood to allowing the flavors of the sauce to develop. ABC+ brings that familiar combination of ingredients into a ready-to-eat format.

Open the tin, serve the octopus with its sauce, and you've got the foundation for a delicious appetizer or a more complete meal.

It's a simple idea, but when the flavors are this good, you really don't need much else.

How We'd Enjoy It at Ibérico Taste

Our first choice? A thick slice of toasted sourdough. Spoon the octopus and its caldeirada sauce over the bread, add a few fresh herbs, and enjoy. The bread absorbs the tomato-based sauce beautifully, and it's probably the easiest way to appreciate all those traditional flavors.

For something a little more elaborate, we'd love to serve it alongside squid ink risotto. The deep, savory flavor of the risotto pairs beautifully with the octopus and its rich sauce.

You can also enjoy it with a fresh herb salad or boiled potatoes for a simple, satisfying meal.

And honestly, this is exactly the kind of conserva we'd open in the middle of the table with friends, some good bread, and a glass of something refreshing. Great food and good conversation are often all you need.

Why We Love It

• Inspired by caldeirada, a traditional Portuguese seafood stew.
• Octopus in a rich, comforting tomato, onion, and garlic sauce.
• A recipe rooted in Portugal's coastal culinary traditions.
• Simple ingredients carefully balanced for authentic flavor.
• A convenient way to enjoy traditional Portuguese octopus.
• Delicious with crusty bread, squid ink risotto, potatoes, or fresh salads.

A Rare Portuguese Seafood Delicacy with an Unexpected Twist

Some conservas are classics for a reason. Others catch our attention precisely because they're so unusual. And skate fish in extra virgin olive oil and curry definitely belongs to the second group.

If you've never tried skate fish before, this is a great place to start. ABC+ takes this lesser-known seafood delicacy from Portuguese waters and combines it with premium extra virgin olive oil and aromatic curry. The result is delicate, flavorful, and surprisingly harmonious.

At Ibérico Taste, we love discovering products that go beyond the usual sardines, tuna, and mackerel. There's something exciting about opening a tin you've never tried before, especially when it's made with this much attention to detail.

Discover Skate Fish, One of Portugal's Lesser-Known Seafood Treasures

Skate fish, known as raia in Portuguese, has a long history in Portugal's coastal cuisine, although it's not something you'll commonly find in the canned seafood aisle.

Part of the ray family, skate is appreciated for its delicate, slightly sweet flavor and distinctive texture. It's milder than many other types of seafood, making it particularly well suited to recipes that introduce new flavors without overpowering the fish.

For this conserva, ABC+ sources skate fish from waters around Portugal, bringing a traditional seafood ingredient into a completely different format.

We particularly like that this recipe gives seafood lovers the opportunity to discover a fish that rarely gets the attention it deserves.

Hand-Cut Skate Fish, Carefully Prepared

One of the things that makes this conserva special is the attention given to the fish before it ever reaches the tin.

Each piece of skate is meticulously cut by hand to help preserve its delicate texture. The portions are then individually placed into tins, reflecting the careful preparation associated with traditional Portuguese seafood preservation.

It's a small detail that makes a difference. Skate has a very particular texture, and treating it carefully is essential to getting the best out of the fish.

For us, this is exactly what makes a good conserva worth appreciating: quality ingredients, thoughtful preparation, and respect for the product.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Curry: An Unexpectedly Good Match

Now, here's where things get particularly interesting.

Extra virgin olive oil is one of the most traditional ways to preserve and enjoy seafood in Portugal. It adds richness and smoothness while allowing the natural flavor of the fish to shine.

ABC+ takes that familiar foundation and adds fragrant curry spices, creating a combination that's both comforting and a little adventurous.

The curry brings warm, aromatic notes, while the extra virgin olive oil rounds out the flavors and complements the delicate skate. Neither ingredient overwhelms the fish, which is exactly how we like it.

It's a lovely example of how Portuguese conservas can embrace new culinary influences without losing their connection to traditional craftsmanship.

How We'd Enjoy It at Ibérico Taste

Our first choice? Warm white rice. Gently warm the skate with its curry-infused olive oil in a separate dish, then spoon everything over a bowl of rice. It's simple, satisfying, and lets the flavors of the conserva do most of the work.

We'd also recommend serving it on toasted sourdough or crusty bread. Add a few pieces of skate, drizzle over some of the aromatic olive oil, and finish with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon.

For something lighter, try pairing it with boiled potatoes and a fresh green salad. The acidity of a simple lemon dressing provides a nice contrast to the richness of the olive oil and curry.

And if you're planning a conservas tasting with friends, this is definitely one we'd put on the table. It's unusual enough to spark a conversation, and that's part of the fun.

Why We Love It

• Skate fish sourced from waters around Portugal.
• A rare and interesting alternative to traditional tinned seafood.
• Delicate, slightly sweet flavor and distinctive texture.
• Carefully hand-cut portions, individually packed into tins.
• Premium extra virgin olive oil combined with aromatic curry.
• A balanced recipe that allows the natural flavor of the fish to shine.
• Delicious with rice, toasted bread, potatoes, or fresh salads.
• Ready to enjoy straight from the tin or gently warmed.

Mackerel Fillets in Moqueca Sauce by ABC+

Portuguese mackerel meets Brazilian cuisine. Sounds interesting, right? That's exactly what caught our attention about these Mackerel Fillets in Moqueca Sauce by ABC+.

Inspired by *moqueca*, one of Brazil's most beloved seafood stews, this recipe combines tender mackerel fillets with a rich, aromatic sauce made with coconut milk, peppers, tomato, garlic, and palm oil. The result is creamy, comforting, and full of flavor, with a tropical touch that makes it quite different from your usual tin of fish.

At Ibérico Taste, we love discovering conservas that take us somewhere unexpected. And this one feels like a little trip to the Brazilian coast, without even leaving the kitchen.

Moqueca: A Taste of Brazil in a Portuguese Tin

If you've never tried moqueca, you're in for something special. This traditional Brazilian seafood stew is known for its rich, fragrant sauce, where coconut milk, vegetables, and aromatic ingredients come together to create a wonderfully comforting dish.

ABC+ takes inspiration from this Brazilian classic and brings its distinctive flavors to Portuguese tinned seafood.

The coconut milk provides a smooth, creamy base, while the peppers, tomato, and garlic add layers of savory flavor. Palm oil contributes to the sauce's richness and characteristic depth.

What we particularly like is how these ingredients work together. There's plenty going on in the sauce, but the flavors remain balanced enough to let the mackerel shine.

Tender Mackerel with a Rich, Aromatic Sauce

Mackerel is one of our favorite fish for conservas, and we think it deserves much more attention.

Its tender texture and naturally flavorful meat make it particularly versatile, especially when paired with sauces that have a little personality.

Mackerel is also naturally rich in Omega-3 fatty acids and protein, and provides important nutrients such as vitamins B6 and B12.

In this recipe, the fish pairs beautifully with the creamy coconut-based moqueca sauce. The mackerel adds a satisfying seafood flavor, while the sauce brings warmth, richness, and a gentle tropical character.

It's a combination that feels indulgent without requiring any complicated preparation.

How We'd Enjoy It at Ibérico Taste

Our first choice? A bowl of warm white rice. Gently warm the mackerel and its moqueca sauce in a separate dish, spoon everything over the rice, and let the creamy coconut sauce do the rest. Simple, delicious, and ready in minutes.

We'd also recommend serving it with crusty bread. Trust us, you'll want something to soak up every last bit of that sauce.

For something a little different, try adding the mackerel to a hearty grain bowl with quinoa, roasted vegetables, and fresh herbs. The moqueca sauce brings plenty of flavor without needing much extra seasoning.

And if you're sharing a few conservas with friends, this is a great one to open when you want to introduce something unexpected to the table.

Why We Love It

• Tender mackerel fillets in a rich, aromatic sauce.
• Inspired by moqueca, a traditional Brazilian seafood stew.
• Creamy coconut milk combined with peppers, tomato, garlic, and palm oil.
• A comforting balance of savory, aromatic, and tropical flavors.

Squid in Curry Sauce by ABC+

Squid in curry sauce? We have to admit, it's not exactly what comes to mind when we think of Portuguese conservas. But that's one of the things we love about Squid in Curry Sauce by ABC+: it takes a familiar seafood ingredient and gives it a completely unexpected twist.

Inspired by the aromatic spices of Indian cuisine, this recipe combines tender squid with a rich, creamy curry sauce that's full of warmth and flavor. It's comforting, a little adventurous, and a delicious reminder that great conservas don't always have to follow tradition.

At Ibérico Taste, we have a soft spot for producers who dare to experiment without losing sight of what matters most: the quality of the seafood. And ABC+ has created something genuinely interesting here.

Carefully Selected Squid, Prepared with Attention to Detail

Good squid is all about texture. When prepared properly, it should be tender and pleasant to eat, never unnecessarily chewy.

For this recipe, ABC+ carefully selects its squid by hand and meticulously cleans it before combining it with the curry sauce. This attention to detail helps preserve the squid's delicate texture while allowing it to absorb the flavors of the sauce.

The result is tender calamari with a mild, slightly sweet seafood flavor that pairs beautifully with the aromatic spices.

A Rich, Creamy Curry Inspired by Indian Cuisine

What really makes this tin stand out is the sauce.

Drawing inspiration from Indian cooking, ABC+ brings together the warm, aromatic character of curry with the delicate flavor of squid. The sauce is rich and creamy, coating the calamari and adding depth to every bite.

We particularly like how the spices complement the seafood rather than hiding it. You get the comforting richness of curry while still enjoying the natural flavor and texture of the squid.

It's an unexpected combination of Portuguese conservas and Indian-inspired flavors, and one we're very happy to have discovered.

How We'd Enjoy It at Ibérico Taste

Our first choice? A bowl of warm basmati rice. Gently warm the squid and its curry sauce in a separate dish, spoon everything over the rice, and you've got a flavorful meal in minutes. Simple, satisfying, and with almost no preparation required.

We'd also recommend serving it with crusty bread or warm flatbread. The creamy curry sauce is far too good to leave behind, so make sure you have something to soak it up.

For a fresher contrast, try adding a simple cucumber salad with fresh herbs and a little lemon. The acidity and freshness work particularly well alongside the richness of the curry.

And if you're putting together a tapas-style dinner with friends, this is a great tin to bring something unexpected to the table.

Why We Love It

• Carefully selected squid, hand-picked and meticulously cleaned.
• Tender calamari with a delicate seafood flavor.

Mackerel Fillets Aglio e Olio by ABC+

Sometimes, the simplest recipes are the ones we enjoy the most. And these Mackerel Fillets Aglio e Olio by ABC+ are a perfect example. Tender mackerel, aromatic garlic, and fresh parsley come together in a recipe that doesn't need much else to be delicious.

Inspired by the Italian classic *aglio e olio*, this Portuguese conserva is all about letting a few well-chosen flavors shine. The garlic brings a bold, savory touch, the parsley adds freshness, and the mackerel provides a delicate, satisfying texture.

At Ibérico Taste, we have a real appreciation for recipes like this. Nothing overly complicated, just good fish and a combination of ingredients that works beautifully.

A Delicate Mackerel with Plenty of Flavor

Mackerel is one of those fish we believe deserves a little more attention. It's flavorful, naturally rich in healthy fats, and has a tender texture that makes it particularly enjoyable in conservas.

It's also a natural source of Omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and vitamins such as B6 and B12, making it a nutritious addition to your pantry.

What we particularly like about the mackerel in this recipe is how well it works with the garlic and parsley. The fish remains the star of the tin, while the sauce adds just enough character to make every bite interesting.

Aglio e Olio: Garlic, Parsley, and Simplicity

The beauty of aglio e olio is that it proves you don't need a long list of ingredients to create something memorable.

ABC+ takes inspiration from this classic combination and brings it to Portuguese tinned seafood. The sauce has a smooth, gently creamy character, with garlic and parsley taking center stage.

The garlic adds a pleasant sharpness, while the parsley brings fresh, slightly herbal notes that balance the richness of the mackerel.

The result is bright, savory, and surprisingly refreshing. It's the kind of conserva that feels particularly at home on a sunny afternoon, served with good bread and something fresh on the side.

How We'd Enjoy It at Ibérico Taste

Our first choice? A fresh, peppery salad. Place the mackerel fillets over arugula or other spicy greens, add thinly sliced radishes and fresh herbs, and finish with a little of the sauce from the tin. Simple, fresh, and full of flavor.

We also love serving it with crisp crackers or toasted sourdough. The contrast between the crunchy bread and the tender fish works beautifully, especially with the garlic and parsley sauce.

Codfish in Caldeirada Sauce by ABC+

There are few ingredients more closely connected to Portuguese cuisine than codfish. And if there's one thing we love about Codfish in Caldeirada Sauce by ABC+, it's how this tin manages to capture the comforting flavors of a traditional Portuguese fish stew without having to spend hours in the kitchen.

Tender codfish is combined with a flavorful sauce made with tomato, onion, and garlic, three simple ingredients that form the foundation of so many great Portuguese recipes. The result is rich, savory, and wonderfully comforting.

At Ibérico Taste, we're big fans of conservas that offer more than just convenience. We love finding products that tell a story about where they come from, and this one brings a little piece of Portuguese home cooking straight to your table.

Caldeirada: A Traditional Portuguese Fish Stew

Caldeirada is one of Portugal's most recognizable seafood dishes. Traditionally prepared with fish, vegetables, and a flavorful broth, it's the kind of meal that brings people together around the table.

While codfish originally comes from colder waters outside Portugal, bacalhau has become an essential part of Portuguese culinary identity. Generations of Portuguese cooks have developed countless ways to prepare it, from simple everyday dishes to elaborate family recipes.

ABC+ takes inspiration from this tradition and recreates the familiar flavors of caldeirada in a tin. Tomato, onion, and garlic come together in just the right balance to create a sauce that feels like something you'd find simmering in a Portuguese kitchen.

Simple Ingredients, Plenty of Portuguese Flavor

What we particularly like about this recipe is that it doesn't need an endless list of ingredients to deliver great flavor.

The tomato provides a rich, slightly sweet base, the onion adds depth, and the garlic brings that unmistakable savory character. Together, they complement the delicate codfish without overpowering it.

It's a lovely reminder that some of the best Mediterranean and Portuguese recipes are built around simple ingredients prepared with care.

And the best part? All those comforting flavors are ready to enjoy as soon as you open the tin.

How We'd Enjoy It at Ibérico Taste

Our first recommendation? A generous slice of crusty bread. Spoon the codfish and its caldeirada sauce over warm toasted bread, add a few fresh herbs, and you've got a fantastic Portuguese-inspired appetizer in minutes.

If you're feeling a little more adventurous, try serving it alongside squid ink risotto. The rich, savory flavors of the risotto work beautifully with the tomato-based sauce and delicate codfish.

For something lighter, pair it with a fresh herb salad. And honestly, this is also the kind of tin we'd happily open in the middle of the table, with some good bread and friends to share it with. No complicated recipe required.

Why We Love It

• Inspired by caldeirada, a traditional Portuguese fish stew.
• Tender codfish in a flavorful tomato, onion, and garlic sauce.
• A comforting recipe rooted in Portuguese culinary tradition.
• Simple ingredients that allow the natural flavor of the fish to shine.

Trout Fillets in Dill and Pickles Sauce by ABC+

When we think of Portuguese conservas, dill and pickles aren't exactly the first ingredients that come to mind. And that's one of the reasons we love discovering products like these Trout Fillets in Dill and Pickles Sauce by ABC+.

Fresh river trout from northern Portugal meets a Nordic-inspired sauce made with dill and pickles. The combination is mild, refreshing, slightly salty, and full of aromatic flavor. It's quite different from traditional Portuguese tinned fish, but that's precisely what makes it worth trying.

At Ibérico Taste, we have a soft spot for producers who aren't afraid to explore new flavors while keeping good seafood at the center of their recipes. ABC+ does exactly that with this tin.

Fresh River Trout from Northern Portugal

Trout is a freshwater fish with a long tradition in Portuguese cuisine. For this recipe, ABC+ sources its trout from the Rio Coura, in northern Portugal, a region where freshwater fish has an established place in local gastronomy.

Trout is naturally rich in protein and provides vitamins and minerals, but what we particularly appreciate is its delicate texture and mild flavor.

Unlike stronger-flavored fish such as sardines or mackerel, trout has a more subtle character, making it especially good with aromatic sauces. It allows the dill and pickles to stand out without losing the natural flavor of the fish.

A Nordic-Inspired Dill and Pickle Sauce

Now, the sauce is where things get really interesting.

Inspired by Nordic culinary traditions, this combination of dill and pickles brings together fresh herbal notes, gentle acidity, and a pleasantly salty finish.

Despite its mild character, the sauce has plenty of personality. The dill adds a fresh, aromatic touch, while the pickles contribute that distinctive tanginess that works so well with fish.

It's refreshing without being bland, flavorful without being overpowering, and a lovely contrast to the natural richness of the trout.

We particularly like how ABC+ has taken inspiration from Northern European cuisine and brought it into a Portuguese conserva. It's an unexpected combination that makes perfect sense once you taste it.

How We'd Enjoy It at Ibérico Taste

Our first choice? A fresh, hearty salad. Add the trout and its sauce to a bowl of mixed greens, cucumber, boiled potatoes, and fresh herbs. The dill and pickle sauce does much of the work, so you won't need an elaborate dressing.

Another combination we'd definitely recommend is toasted sourdough or crusty bread. Flake the trout over the bread, add a few sliced pickles and peppers, and finish with a spoonful of the sauce from the tin.

And honestly, this is exactly the kind of conserva we'd take on a picnic. Some good bread, a few pickles, a couple of tins, and friends to share them with. Sometimes the simplest plans are the best.

Trout Fillets in Curry Sauce by ABC+

We'll admit it: trout in curry sauce isn't exactly what comes to mind when you think of Portuguese conservas. But that's precisely what caught our attention about these Trout Fillets in Curry Sauce by ABC+.

Fresh river trout from northern Portugal, paired with a rich, aromatic yellow curry sauce. It might sound like an unusual combination, but trust us, it works. The trout is tender and delicate, while the curry adds warmth, spice, and plenty of flavor without overpowering the fish.

It's one of those tins that reminds us why we love discovering small producers and interesting recipes. Sometimes the best conservas are the ones that surprise you.

Fresh River Trout from Northern Portugal

ABC+ sources its trout from the Rio Coura, in northern Portugal, where freshwater trout has long been part of the local food culture.

Trout is naturally rich in protein and provides essential nutrients, but what we particularly like about it is its texture and flavor. It's tender, delicate, and noticeably milder than fish like sardines or mackerel.

And that's exactly why it works so well here. The trout has enough character to stand on its own, but its mild flavor gives the curry sauce room to shine.

Yellow Curry and Trout: An Unexpectedly Good Match

Now, let's talk about the sauce, because it's a big part of what makes this tin special.

The yellow curry is thick, aromatic, and full of warm spices, but it's also surprisingly balanced. You get all that comforting curry flavor without losing the delicate taste of the trout underneath.

We love traditional Portuguese conservas in olive oil, but we also appreciate producers who aren't afraid to try something different. ABC+ has done exactly that with this recipe.

How We'd Enjoy It at Ibérico Taste

Our first choice? A bowl of warm white rice. Open the tin, gently warm the trout and its curry sauce in a separate dish, and serve everything over the rice. That's it. A genuinely delicious meal with almost no effort.

Another option we love is good crusty bread. And plenty of it, because leaving that curry sauce behind would be a shame.

If you want something a little fresher, try serving the trout with a salad of peppery greens, fresh herbs, and a slightly tangy dressing. The contrast works beautifully with the richness of the curry.
