GALICIA IS BORDERED TO THE NORTH BY THE CANTABRIAN SEA AND BY THE ATLANTIC OCEAN ON ITS WEST. IT HAS OVER 1000 MILES OF COASTLINE. THE ATLANTIC COAST IS CHARACTERIZED BY RIAS, RIVER VALLEYS THAT HAVE BEEN CLAIMED BY THE SEA. Thanks to the Atlantic Ocean’s currents, these estuaries waters are among the richest and productive on the planet.

To talk about cod is to dive in a deeply rooted tradition in Portugal. For a long time, only salted and dried cod deserved full attention. But enthusiasm for canned food started to increase gradually. Caught in the North East Atlantic, the cod we use to prepare our cans is paired with olive oil and garlic, thus preserving the traditional combination of this Portuguese dish.
Cockles are collected by hand on the beaches of the Galician coast at low tide. Because of the richness of the waters, their flavor is unbeatable. They are seasoned only with sea salt.
