A good mussel has a tasty and fat core! The resources of the Galician Rias and its “up-welling” phenomenon (the organic matter originated on the bottom of the ocean is forced to rise throughout the vales of the rias) makes the mussels grow with a unique flavour. These mussels are ideal to have on the table at dinners or family and friend lunches, as a snack, entry, side dish or main course. Prepared the Sailor’s style, vinaigrette, with onions or is a cataplana… It is an excellent shellfish to inspire the creation of new dishes in the kitchen!

Capturada por arrasto em águas profundas da Costa Algarvia e do Sudoeste de Portugal, a pesca da Gamba do Algarve é bastante significativa, tornando os seus preços muito simpáticos, tendo em conta o seu incrível sabor a mar. É imperdível nos petiscos entre amigos e família – cozida em água e sal, crua ou frita. Os tamanhos grandes, que são muito raros, são ótimos para grelhar na chapa.

Its name is inspired in the golden spot that is has between its eyes. It feed on Shellfish (clams and mussels), crabs, but also earthworms and seaweeds. The gilthead seabream is very active in its daily life, has a firm and dense meat and a lot of concentrated flavour that results from its diverse feeding habits. When caught in the Ria Formosa and the Ria of Alvor, or in locations with food abundance, it provides a true feast of the Gods. This fish is delicious when grilled, done with cooked in salt. If you risk it and try doing sashimi or ceviche you will not regret it!
