Sardines in a can
Sardines are small, medium‑fat marine fish that are considered a delicacy in some countries. Although it is not difficult to find freshly caught and chilled sardines, they are particularly popular in canned form. Sardines are characterised by their high protein content, omega 3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, vitamin D and calcium (if eaten with the bones).
Sardines are an easy and quick snack - they are suitable for salads, pasta, making spreads or simply on bread.
We only sell quality sardines - no sprats, anchovies or herring. You can try Vilgain Sardines in their own juice or in extra virgin olive oil. The highest quality is characterized by HGT sardines which are processed using traditional artisanal techniques.
For long‑term storage, it is recommended to turn the tin of sardines regularly, which results in more even maceration and tenderisation of the meat - according to some gourmets, sardines age as well as fine wine.
