Nuri Tinned Fish: Renowned Worldwide

Nuri, the legendary conserveira from Portugal, is enormously influential in the world of artisanal tinned fish. Since 1920, it has canned everything by hand, using carefully selected fish, a time-intensive vapor pre-cooking method, and top-quality olive oil, vegetables, spices and herbs. Nuri is an Arabic word meaning “shine,” symbolizing this brand’s exceptional quality and brightness. 

We carry three of its hand-wrapped specialities: 

Nuri Sardines in Olive Oil: These are the classic sardines in olive oil. The only other ingredient is a touch of salt. Enjoy them straight from the tin or atop your crostini or salad! 

Nuri Spiced Mackerel in Olive Oil: Filleted without skin or bone, this plump mackerel is spiced with chili, cloves and black pepper, then cooked with cucumber, carrot and bay leaves. Its appealing flavor has earned a devoted following worldwide. 

Nuri Spiced Sardines: Savory, with a pleasing salt balance, subtle heat and a firm bite, these sardines draw their spice from chili, black pepper and cloves. Cucumber, carrot and laurel round out the flavor.
