My thoughts:
When nosotros were inward Portugal (where I want I was correct now, I torture myself past times checking Lisbon's conditions every day) nosotros ate at ii dissimilar restaurants that specialized inward canned seafood. Both were amazing! The Portuguese accept their canned fish really seriously as well as what they create alongside it is amazing. I'm nevertheless dreaming of the octopus croquettes I had at Can de Can. Like here, canned tuna (alum inward Portuguese) is really pop as well as sold either inward slices or inward salads similar this one. It is ordinarily tuna packed inward olive oil, exactly that tin hold upwards to a greater extent than hard to honor hither as well as therefore for ease of replication, I used wild-caught skipjack tuna I bought inward pouches (Safe Catch Elite) as well as added olive oil. If y'all create cause got access to good, Portuguese (or Italian) tuna, experience costless to role that as well as skip the extra olive oil. I genuinely nevertheless cause got a few cans of seafood I brought dorsum from Portugal cheers to the long expiration dates of canned goods that I'm nevertheless hoarding. I'll hold upwards poor when they are gone.

Nearly every repast nosotros ate inward Portugal consisted of a. seafood b. boiled potatoes c. or as well as therefore kind of light-green vegetable. Before each meal, they convey y'all bread, canned seafood spreads, cheese/butter/oil, croquettes as well as olives that y'all cause got to turn down if y'all don't desire exactly are inexpensive (a euro or so) if y'all function on them. This is kind of the salad version of that: tuna, boiled potatoes, olives as well as hard boiled eggs. Simple yet really satisfying. It is a lovely dinner as well as the leftovers brand a bully tiffin every bit it is proficient slightly warm (if the potatoes are freshly cooked) or chilled. I genuinely similar it improve afterward it has been chilled every bit the flavors meld.
