Wild-caught Portuguese sardines in olive oil and very little else, the tin that turned a humble fish into the thing everyone puts on the board.

Miss Can packs them in Portugal, silky and rich, with protein and calcium under the flavor. Smash them onto grilled sourdough with ricotta, a drizzle of honey and a pinch of chili.

For the host gift that reads knowing. For the stocking. For the friend who discovered tinned fish and is not going back, or for you.
