A timeless Spanish favourite, these Cuca sardines are bathed in a bright, tangy tomato sauce that complements their natural sweetness. Delicious straight from the tin or served over toasted sourdough for an easy Mediterranean meal.
Serving suggestion: Pile onto toasted bread rubbed with garlic, or toss through penne with a few olives and herbs for a quick, flavourful dish.
Wine match: Garnacha rosado or Barossa Valley Grenache Rosé.
 
Begun in 1936, this Spanish brand based in Galicia is a producer of a variety of conservas, specialising in sardines and tuna. Unlike many competitors, Cuca produce seasonally. Changes in water temperature and rainfall affect the texture and flavour of the seafood; Cuca aim to produce when the fat content or flavour of each product is at its best. 

Ingredients: Sardines, sunflower oil, water, fried onion, tomato (5%), vinegar, spices and salt.
