Even the ancient Romans prized sardines, consuming them salted, marinated, or smoked. To this day, sardines remain a high-quality product, provided the quality and preparation methods are right. Thanks to their short lifespan, they absorb very few pollutants from the sea and boast a high content of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and trace elements. 100g of sardines (about 8 fish) contain 40% of the recommended daily intake of calcium and 100% of the vitamin D necessary for absorbing these trace elements. For the human body to absorb all these valuable nutrients, it is essential that the sardines are preserved in high-quality olive oil, as only this oil allows the body to break them down and metabolize them.

For the sake of pure enjoyment, however, you should definitely not miss out on the many other wonderful creations within the incomparably rich range of flavors offered by canned sardines: sardines in fruity sauce, in white wine, in butter, with water and lemon… Try it!

The sardine remains a central feature of many port cities in Brittany, as well as in Spain and Portugal. Fortunately, it is not threatened with extinction and can be enjoyed without guilt.
