Presented in olive oil, the preferred source of fat of the Mediterranean diet, considered as the healthiest, this preserve confers on the sardine colours and textures, aromas and flavours of a smoked product with character.

Preserved sardines in vegetable oil with pickles combines a traditional product in the Portuguese diet, which Ramirez is proud to produce since the mid-nineteenth century, with the more refined taste conferred by the pickles. Sardine is the fish of reference of the Mediterranean diet and is advised by nutritionists worldwide due mainly to its high content of Omega 3, a polyunsaturated fatty acid that protects the heart and helps reduce the risk of heart attack, controlling the levels of cholesterol present in the blood.
