Line caught around the Azores, a carefully managed group of Portuguese islands in the North Atlantic, Tenorio’s Tuna Fillets in Olive Oil are nothing like the canned tuna you’re used to. Tender and moist, this tuna is cut into large pieces before being packed in buttery extra virgin olive oil. Lightly salted with a briny, clean fish flavor, each tender cut is just as good on its own as it is added to a salad or sandwich. Established in 1880, Tenorio sustainably fishes all of their skipjack tuna and is committed to maintaining a healthy ocean wildlife population.
That’s what Michael Benevides, owner of Portugalia Marketplace, says about the uptick in tinned fish in the last few years. Though the Portuguese industry is churning out the same high quality product as always, the trend really started during the pandemic, where he noticed that tinned fish was showing up on more menus, like at wine bars. Plus “Everyone was at home, wanting pantry staples and realized the quality of the [Portuguese] tins was exceptional.”
