{"product_id":"spiced-sardines-with-pickles-minerva","title":"Spiced Sardines with Pickles","description":"\u003cp\u003eMinerva Sardines in Spiced Olive Oil with Pickles are whole Atlantic sardines (Sardina pilchardus) caught off the Portuguese coast, hand-selected, steam-cooked, and packed by hand into 120g tins. The packing medium is olive oil infused with piri-piri chili, accompanied by pickled carrot and cucumber. Ingredients are sardines, olive oil, pickles (carrot and cucumber), piri-piri, salt, peppercorns, cloves, and bay leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Minerva brand is owned by A Poveira, a cannery founded in 1938 in Póvoa de Varzim on Portugal's northern Atlantic coast. The Minerva label itself dates to 1942. Fish is sourced from the Atlantic daily and processed at the Póvoa de Varzim facility, which holds MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) and HACCP certifications. Each sardine is steam-cooked before canning, following the traditional Portuguese preservation method.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe spice profile is warm rather than aggressively hot: piri-piri provides mild background heat, while clove, bay, and black pepper round out the oil. The pickled carrot and cucumber add crunch and brightness that cut through the richness of the fish. The result is a savory, lightly spiced tin that works equally well straight from the can or as a component in a composed dish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Minerva","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41147403305159,"sku":"MINERVA-SARDPICKLE","price":6.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0019\/3363\/9735\/products\/minerva-sardines-in-spiced-olive-oil-with-pickles-porto-canned-fish-online.jpg?v=1780185564","url":"https:\/\/primalwine.com\/products\/spiced-sardines-with-pickles-minerva","provider":"Primal Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
