Hand-packed on the Portuguese coast, these premium mussels are preserved in a beautifully balanced pickled sauce that highlights, rather than overpowers, their naturally sweet flavour. The classic escabeche combines olive oil, vinegar, paprika and aromatic spices to create a vibrant, tangy marinade that perfectly complements the plump, tender mussels.
Each bite offers a satisfying balance of sweetness, gentle acidity and savoury warmth, making this a timeless Portuguese conserva that's equally suited to simple entertaining or elevated tapas.
Serving Suggestions
Serve straight from the tin with crusty bread to soak up every drop of the escabeche.
Pair with warm boiled potatoes and fresh parsley for a traditional Iberian-style dish.
Add to a tapas platter alongside olives, roasted peppers and cured meats.
Toss through a leafy salad with shaved fennel and orange segments for a fresh, flavourful lunch.
Wine Pairings
International: A Portuguese Vinho Verde provides lively citrus, crisp acidity and a slight spritz that beautifully complements the tangy escabeche.
Australian: A Great Southern Riesling from Western Australia offers bright lime, floral aromas and refreshing minerality that pairs perfectly with the sweet mussels and pickled sauce.
