The cleaner, Scandinavian answer to sardines, these brisling are exceptional and a great addition to any pantry. They’re sustainably caught, lightly salted and then packed in a pleasant neutral oil—yielding a balanced taste. We found the fish supremely firm and flavorful. A light blend of allspice and cloves offers a layer of aromatic complexity.

Fangst, a Danish seafood company, incorporates Nordic traditions into everything from catching to canning their pantry-friendly fish products. Mild, nutty and fatty, Fangst’s trout is sustainably harvested in state-of-the-art fisheries—set up in cold, pristine Nordic waters—before being canned and flavored with traditional Scandinavian preservation methods. This trout has a cleaner taste than most store-bought canned fish. A deep smokiness complements the mild fish, as well as herbal notes and light spice from the juniper and lemon thyme, a citrusy variety of the common herb. The fish comes skinless and packed in rapeseed oil, which is delicate enough to allow the meat’s bright brininess and clean flavor to shine through.
