José Peña Zamburiñas al Natural – Spanish Scallops 115g

José Peña has been preserving the finest scallops from the Galician coast since 1953. These zamburiñas—smaller, more delicate cousins of the king scallop—arrive in their own juices, unsauced and unadulterated. A 115-gram tin holds tender, naturally sweet mollusks that taste of salt spray and ocean depth, ready to dress simply or fold into a seafood rice.

About this product

Zamburiñas al natural means scallops preserved in their own brine, without oil or added flavorings. This method keeps the meat impossibly tender and their subtle briny character intact. José Peña sources from licensed Galician beds and cans on the same day as harvest. The result is a conserva that works equally well spooned onto a cracker with a squeeze of lemon, tossed through chilled pasta, or layered into a seafood salad.

How to enjoy

• Serve chilled on a crostini with a light squeeze of fresh lemon and fleur de sel.
• Toss through warm white beans and sherry vinegar for a simple Galician-style dish.
• Add to paella or seafood rice in the final minutes before serving.
• Layer into a seafood salad with rocket, fennel, and Champagne vinaigrette.

⭐ Why we love this

Zamburiñas al natural represent the Galician gold standard—these delicate scallops are harvested and canned the same day, preserving their impossibly tender texture and briny minerality without any oil or sauce to mask their purity. José Peña's 70-year mastery of the conserva craft means you're tasting the Atlantic exactly as it arrives on the plate.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Serve these with a crisp, mineral Albariño from Rías Baixas to echo the scallops' oceanic character, or pair with a chilled Fino sherry and some crusty bread for an authentic Spanish seafood moment. They're equally brilliant tossed into a seafood paella in the final minute, where they won't overcook.

📍 From Spain

These zamburiñas come from the Galician coast, where licensed scallop beds supply some of Europe's finest seafood conservas. José Peña's cannery sits steps from the harbor, guaranteeing that each tin captures the sweet, salt-sprayed essence of Galicia's cold Atlantic waters at their peak.
