Tinned Seafood Recipes
Where I live now In Portugal, tinned fish isn’t a backup plan or the pantry dinner we eat when the budget needs trimming. Entire shops and restaurants here are devoted to conservas, with walls of tins so beautiful visitors buy them as souvenirs. Many years of living here changed how I cook from a tin.
The fish is already cooked, so most of these recipes just warm it through, crisp it up, or let it soak up a really good sauce. You’ll find sizzling garlic sardines, a silky octopus ragu, salmon croquetas for tapas night, and plenty of quick lunches in between. New to tinned fish? Start with my 20+ Best Tinned Fish Recipes.
