Island Creek Octopus a la Gallega
Producer: Costas y Miñan
Location: Galicia, Spain
Story: The ocean has shaped the culture, cuisine, and economy of Galicia for centuries. Nicknamed “the land of a thousand rivers”, Galicia is studded with bays and inlets which are fed “rías” (aka estuaries). It's this magical brew of the fresh and salt water that makes Galicia one of the most prolific shellfishing regions in the world. Harvesting and canning production are entirely dictated by the seasons and the health of the shellfish stocks, meaning that no two years will look the same and which is what makes these products so special.
What’s Inside: Octopus, olive oil, paprika, bay leaf and spices
How it tastes: Like a flavor train straight to Comfort Town! Warm spices coat slices of tender octopus, toothy and rich like dark thigh meat, and coated in amber-hued olive oil that will transport you straight to your grandma’s kitchen.
How to eat: Balance the warm umami of this tin with a bright citrus salad topped with fresh herbs, and a crisp white wine. Hello, Mediterranean vacation!
Box description: Saucey gang, rejoice! This octopus is responsibly fished using traditional methods before getting cozy in amber-hued olive oil infused with warm spices “a la Gallega”—a classic Galician preparation. Toothy and rich, this tin eats more like the dark thigh meat of a free-range chicken than our seafaring tentacled friend we are all accustomed to. It’s like being served dinner by your long lost Galician grandparent.
What you get: One 3.9oz (110g) tin
WARNING: Consuming this product can expose you to chemicals including lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to: www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
