Braulio Alfageme Pickled Mussels in Olive Oil, 110g Conserva, Pack of 2 (2 × 110g)

Braulio Alfageme's pickled mussels arrive in their own vinegared escabeche, then fried in olive oil to give each piece a golden edge. Four to six plump mussels per tin, sourced and preserved in Galicia using methods refined over generations. This is not a filler ingredient — it's a moment: the brininess of the mussel against the mellowed vinegar, the slight richness of the fry oil, a squeeze of lemon if you like.

About this product

Escabeche is an old Spanish preservation technique that marries acid and spice; these mussels are first cooked in that briny bath, then fried just before canning to seal in texture and flavor. The result sits between a conserva and a tapa — substantial enough to stand alone with bread and a cold glass of albariño, refined enough to nestle into a composed plate with grilled vegetables or white fish.

How to enjoy

• Serve chilled or at room temperature on a slice of toasted sourdough with a lemon wedge.
• Layer into a seafood salad with white beans, roasted red peppers, and vinaigrette.
• Pair with a dry white wine such as Albariño or Verdejo.
• Offer as part of a Spanish tapas board alongside cured cheese, canned seafood, and marinated olives.

⭐ Why we love this

This is escabeche done right—a Galician classic where vinegar and frying technique elevate mussels from preservation to pleasure. The double-cook method (escabeche first, then golden-fried) creates a textural contrast that defines authentic Spanish seafood conservas, making each tin a genuine moment rather than mere pantry filler.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Serve chilled with a crisp Albariño from Rías Baixas—the wine's salinity mirrors the briny mussel and cuts through the fry oil beautifully. Or enjoy as a standalone tapa with crusty bread and lemon, paired with a chilled Fino sherry for a traditional Spanish aperitivo moment.
