Yep, the same Patagonia - they've decided to dip their toes in the conservas market. It makes sense - camping with tinned seafood is a no-brainer. Shelf stable, super healthy, and delicious - you can make a meal with the pop of a tin and a sleeve of saltines. However, we're not going lie - we were a tad skeptical. There are plenty of delicious, well established, time-honored conservas producers out there, so why bother? But then we tried it - and yes - please bother.
Acting as a broker, Patagonia is using their leverage as a well known name to help support hook and line fishing and fish preserving off the Spanish coast. Working, with small fisherman and canning facilities, they're not only helping keep these folks in business, but producing some amazing tins. This roasted garlic mackerel is yummy right out of the tin. Grab some crackers or bread and you're set. But you can also use it in lieu of canned tuna for your favorite pantry dishes - mackerel salad for sandwiches, on greens, mackerel melt, pasta dishes, over rice, etc. These tins look small, but with the olive oil and packed full they serve two for a full meal, or 4 for a snack.
