This hake roe is Spain's best kept seafood secret. 🐟

These beautiful medallions pack a massive amount of protein with a firm and silky pate texture.

You will love the rich garlic and spicy olive oil flavor profile when served over a crisp fennel cracker. It will completely change your expectations of premium canned fish. Share this with a friend who loves exploring new flavors.

Stop storing your premium olive oil next to the stove.

Heat, light, and air will completely destroy the complex flavors of your favorite pour.

Leaving it on a bright counter quickly oxidizes the liquid and strips away those fresh tasting notes. You need to keep it in a dark bottle in a cool place to protect the flavor. 🫒

3 years ago, Spanish Pig opened its doors in Toronto 🇪🇸

But the story started long before that.

It started with family, Spanish flavours, rituals around the table, and one simple question:

Would people in Canada care about authentic Spanish food the way we did?

The answer came through every order, every visit, every conversation, and every person who chose real Spanish products for their table.

What began as a small passion project became a home for discovery, connection, and a little piece of Spain in Toronto.

This year, receiving the Colmados From Spain certification made the journey even more meaningful: a recognition for stores that authentically represent Spanish products abroad. 🏅

Thank you for making year 3 unforgettable.

Every visit, every order, every recommendation, and every shared table helped build this story.

Come visit us and be part of what comes next. 🍷

Avoid this mistake when trying Spanish tinned fish.

If you dive straight into bold flavors like sea urchin roe, the intense umami might completely overwhelm your palate.

You should start with something milder like mussels to get comfortable with the textures first. Once you adjust, you can confidently explore those complex and exciting new bites. 🥫
