These Portuguese mackerel fillets are a proper tin with a kick. Pinhais selects the best fish from the morning markets and packs them in a secret‑recipe spiced tomato sauce that’s rich, vibrant and beautifully balanced. The mackerel itself is firm yet flaky, with that satisfying oily depth you want from quality tinned fish, while the tomato sauce brings warmth from chilli, aromatic cloves and black pepper, and a savoury sweetness that keeps you going back for more.
Try them straight from the tin for a bold snack, piled high on toast for a fire‑in‑your‑belly breakfast, or stirred through warm pasta to enrich your sauce with smoky, spicy savoury goodness.
Try pairing this with:
"These are the tins I reach for when I want something that’s lively on the palate but proper comforting at the same time. That spiced tomato sauce makes them feel almost like a little meal in a tin – and they’re brilliant on toast with a squeeze of lemon."
Pinhais is a Portuguese cannery with a commitment to quality over quantity. Working with relatively small amounts of fish allows them to hand‑pick the best mackerel straight from the morning markets, ensuring excellent texture and flavour in every tin. Their secret‑recipe sauces are prepared with care, letting traditional Mediterranean influences shine through without overwhelming the natural character of the fish.
