Cockles 120 ml, 50-60 pcs in sea water, La Narval

Product detailed description

Galician cockles are a small maritime provocation for anyone who thinks that sitting at the table can no longer surprise them. Just bring them out in the middle of a conversation, and suddenly the talk will shift to a direction where forks hold more authority than arguments.

Main advantages:

• La Narval Premium edible cockles in brine bring the pure taste of the sea in a preparation that lets the shells themselves fully shine.
• The species Cerastoderma edule is prized for its distinct flavour and pleasant texture, which is why it works well even in a simple brine without heavy sauces.
• The cockles come from the FAO 27 area, specifically from the Portuguese rías, where nutrient-rich waters support their natural marine character.
• Excellent tidal water exchange in these rías helps create an environment that gives the cockles a cleaner taste and a stronger gastronomic identity.
• Local families collect them by hand using a traditional type of rake, which helps filter out the smallest pieces and protect the marine resource.
• Purification in real seawater supports the pure character of the product and helps preserve the taste, which remains directly linked to its origin.
• The brine works with the seafood very simply, so it does not mask their flavour and leaves them with their natural freshness.
• Serving them cold best highlights the delicate structure of the cockles, their clear brine, and the straightforward impression of a marine delicacy.
• On a tapas platter, they pair well with toasted bread, olives, pickled vegetables, or other small treats from the Spanish pantry.
• A short seasoning of lemon, a drop of olive oil, or a fresh herb will give them their own direction without losing the taste of the sea.
• An open can looks clean and straightforward, as the cockles are not hidden in a sauce and remain the main element of the serving.
• The package contains 50-60 pieces, making it suitable for shared tasting, a small starter, or tapas serving for multiple bites.
• The dark purple packaging with a red graphic motif looks striking and modern, while clearly distinguishing the brine variant.
• Thanks to a shelf life of 3 years, the cockles can wait in the pantry for the moment you want to quickly prepare a pure marine delicacy.
• La Narval Premium edible cockles in brine combine Portuguese rías, hand harvesting, and the quiet elegance of simple tapas serving.
