Spanish Preserves
The fascinating world of an industry so important in certain regions of Spain allows us to enjoy excellent preserved products. Whether fish, seafood, meats, pâtés or legumes, quality, variety and even long shelf life always prevail, especially in the case of Spanish preserves. For this reason, and because many contain very healthy recipes, at MadeinSpain.store we are committed to them. We are your direct channel to bring you the best from different canneries across the country.
Why eat Spanish preserves?
These types of foods offer you numerous
advantages from different points of view, beginning with availability and ending with nutrition. Since ancient times, preserves have always been a
practical, quick and
essential food resource in every pantry—especially in times of war or temporary shortages of fresh products in supermarkets. Having
cans and jars at home is a lifesaver.
They are also a very appealing option if you’re traveling, spending long hours away from home for work, or simply don’t feel like cooking one day. Their uses are even more varied because they
adapt to any situation and also provide the right nutrients to eat well. Taking all these benefits together with their long best-before dates,
Spanish preserves are pure excellence.
Excellence and long shelf life
As
ready-to-eat food offered in small portions,
Spanish preserves are often excellent because they contain
healthy foods, in many cases. From a variety of legumes and vegetables to oily fish and all kinds of seafood. These important examples for a balanced diet also come with the guarantee of being produced in Spain — a mark that gives the
highest quality to the raw materials collected from our land or harvested from our seas.
If you want to go further, you can choose products in this category that have
no added sugars or salts and are preserved naturally — either in
extra virgin olive oil or sunflower oil. In any case, a preserve gives you interesting high-quality proteins, Omega-3 and -6 fatty acids, various minerals, fiber and even carbohydrates, depending on the specific contents, of course.
Because of their great usefulness for a healthy, everyday diet we want to highlight
Spanish preserves. So you can learn about their
nutritional qualities and include more of this long-lasting product in your diet. Another point in their favor is how long you can keep them at home without their quality being affected. Their best-before period reaches
4 years if preserved naturally, and can be extended up to
6 years if packed in oil.
Wide catalog including different recipes
Aware of all the characteristics that make Spanish preserves a
delicatessen for everyday use, at
MadeinSpain.store we offer a magnificent variety. Not only across different subcategories within preserves, but also from specific preserving companies that create recipes to make your mouth water. A good example is
Mareterra Deluque, from Ourense (Galicia), with its riojana-style snails, baby squid stuffed with spider crab or in shrimp sauce. Or octopus with potatoes and even various pâtés with the best flavors from the sea.
Conservas Senra is a similar case that, from Sanlúcar de Barrameda (Cádiz), brings you traditional Gaditan dishes. Always featuring top-quality, locally typical ingredients and time-honored recipes. Some jars you can find in our online store include
cuttlefish (sepia) in veranillo style, a la Sanluqueña, or pan-fried. Other options include garlic shrimp or shrimp in tomato;
artichokes, spinach and even
pisto (Spanish vegetable stew).
Seafood, foie gras and vegan pâtés
On the other hand,
Conservas Chanquete is another company that offers gourmet
piquillo peppers stuffed with mussels or chanquetes, as well as several pâtés (scarlet shrimp, spider crab or bonito from Burela) and even
organic mussels in different sauces.
Precisely with that famed bivalve protected in Galician waters, the company
Nosa Batea produces preserves of the highest quality. From this brand we should particularly highlight its
cockles from the
Ría de Noia, a privileged spot for this marine delicacy. Also from the Galician estuaries, and the result of careful selection, come the products of the
Real Conservera Española, which will be available in our store very soon.
Soon we will also offer the specialties of
El Ronqueo. This company, based in Barbate (Cádiz), manages to capture the prized
bluefin tuna caught in the waters off that town in its preserves — with highly appealing recipes and additional ingredients for a different gastronomic experience.
In addition to that wide category of fish and seafood, we also offer an artisanal, all-natural
foie gras of the highest quality made by
El Greco with duck from Les Landes. Other pâtés with a
vegan-certified and even
organic label complete our varied catalog.
In conclusion, these are the options we offer at
MadeinSpain.store so you can include
Spanish preserves in your regular diet. Flavorful, healthy and perfect to always have an excellent resource in your pantry. What are you waiting for to get yours?
