Our Guide to Tinned Fish

Mackerel: Your entry point to tinned fish. 

Our mackerel is caught small and young for a milder taste that’s perfect for the tinned fish-curious. Boneless and skinless, it’s marinated in olive oil for a clean, approachable finish. Hit the ground running with one of our flavored tins, or go simple with our fillets in olive oil. Snack on our Mackerel in Thai Sweet Chili sauce in nori bites or on top of cucumber slices. Or go Mediterranean-style with this hearty farro and butternut squash salad or Mediterranean Mackerel Artichoke Heart & Chickpea Salad that’s perfect for sharing. 

Brisling Sardines: Where delicate meets distinctive. 

Small, young, and wild caught off the Norwegian coast, brisling sardines are prized for their delicate texture and mild, almost sweet flavor. What makes them special is the size: smaller fish means more tender flesh and a gentler taste that's easy to love. Lightly smoked, high in protein and omega-3s, they come in a range of flavors, from Mediterranean Style to Hot Jalapeño Peppers. Toss them into a skillet for 'dines, greens and beans, fold into pasta, put a twist on ricotta toast or follow the flavors of the Mediterranean with a Sardine Caprese with Pesto or Greek-Style Grilled Halloumi and Watermelon.

Boneless & Skinless Sardines: All the flavor, ready when you are. 

Our wild caught fillets are a gentle introduction for anyone new to sardines. Just like our brisling sardines, they're high in protein and feature Omega-3s, but with the skin and bones removed for a smoother bite. Mild and versatile, they make a simple swap wherever you'd reach for tuna. Fold into pasta salad, take your deviled eggs somewhere unexpected, or keep it simple with a tapas-style toast or tapenade. Once you have a tin in the pantry, you'll find yourself reaching for it more than you'd expect.

Kipper Snacks: Character in every bite. 

Kippers are herring, wild caught in the North Atlantic, lightly smoked over real wood, and hand-packed as boneless fillets. The smoke is present and confident, and that's the point. Kippers have been doing this long before smoked fish was having a moment. Scramble them into eggs, stack them on toast or throw them into a salad. For a twist on a weekend classic, try our Kipper Snacks Breakfast Bagel Sandwiches with whipped cream cheese, cucumber, radish, and fresh pea shoots. 

Anchovies: The secret ingredient that isn't secret anymore.

Our anchovies are wild caught off the coasts of Argentina and Morocco, filleted by skilled artisans, and aged in salty brine for months before being hand-packed. The result is a tiny fish that’s deep, briny, and rich, with a savory punch that elevates everything it touches. Use them as the not-so-secret ingredient in a Caesar dressing, melt them into a pan of garlic and olive oil as the base for pasta, or keep it simple with our Herb-Marinated Anchovies Platter: a little lemon, fresh herbs, red onion, and good bread. Patience, as it turns out, has flavor.

Salmon: Meal-worthy by nature. 

Salmon is wildly popular, and we think ours is pretty special. Skinless and boneless, we offer three versatile flavors: lemon, Mediterranean style, or packed simply in olive oil. With a meaty, rich texture, it holds its own with spiced couscous and cauliflower, in a creamy, Norwegian-style chowder, or sesame-soy rice bowls. We like to keep a few tins on hand for weeknight dinners in a pinch, like these lemon salmon sliders or lettuce wraps.

Yellowfin Tuna: The finest take on a timeless staple.

Wild caught, hand-filleted, and packed in extra virgin olive oil with just a touch of sea salt, our yellowfin tuna is a long way from anything you'd find in a standard can. Tender, flavorful, and made with nothing to hide behind, just fish, oil, and salt. It's also one of the most versatile tins in the lineup, equally at home tossed into a salad or lettuce wrap, piled onto a flatbread or eaten straight from the tin with a squeeze of lemon. Reach for it when you want a meal that feels considered without requiring much effort. A good place to start: our Yellowfin Tuna Niçoise Salad.

Mussels: Our first shellfish and your new favorite. 

Our newest tin and our first shellfish, our mussels get the royal treatment from start to finish. Wild caught and ASC certified, naturally wood smoked over real wood and hand-packed in extra virgin olive oil, they carry a deep, savory flavor that stands on its own. They come in three varieties to match your mood: classic for something mellow, lemon for a bright, zingy lift, or chili for a bold kick of heat. High in protein and packed with Omega-3s and essential vitamins and minerals, they're as nourishing as they are versatile. Spoon over grain bowls [insert recipe link for Smoked Mussels Charcuterie Party Board], add to your next snack board , or stir into warm pasta. Feeling cheffy? They make a party-ready paella or a surprisingly simple escabeche worth showing off.
