Mussels in Salsa Escabeche


Dispatched from Sydney within 1–2 business days. Tracked with signature on delivery.

Produced by Conservas La Narval in Galicia, Spain, these mussels are prepared according to the region's long-established conservas tradition. Carefully selected mussels are lightly fried before being hand-packed in the company's house-made salsa escabeche, allowing the shellfish to retain its tenderness while absorbing the character of the marinade.

Escabeche is one of Spain's classic preserving methods, combining olive oil, vinegar, paprika, garlic and bay leaf to produce a sauce that is bright, gently smoky and delicately tangy rather than overpowering. The balance of acidity and spice complements the natural sweetness of the mussels while extending their flavour long after preserving.

Recommended Uses

  • Serve straight from the tin with warm crusty bread
  • Alongside cheeses and cured meats as part of a conservas board

  • The escabeche itself is worth keeping, drizzled over fresh leaves, tomatoes or roasted vegetables as a dressing
  • Serve alongside steamed rice with grilled vegetables.
  • Fold through warm rice with parsley and a squeeze of lemon.
  • Add to a seafood rice or arroz-style dish just before serving

Founded in 1966 in the Ría de Arousa, Conservas La Narval is a family-run Galician producer dedicated to preserving the seafood traditions of Spain's Atlantic northwest. The Rías Gallegas are among Europe's most celebrated fishing grounds, where nutrient-rich waters support an exceptional variety of fish and shellfish that have shaped Galicia's conservas industry for more than a century.

La Narval continues this tradition by sourcing seafood from the surrounding coastline, preparing it by hand and preserving it using recipes developed around the natural flavour of the catch rather than heavy sauces or excessive seasoning. Traditional craftsmanship is combined with modern production standards, allowing the company to maintain the quality and character for which Galician conservas are internationally recognised.

Today, La Narval produces a broad range of fish and shellfish conservas, each reflecting the same philosophy: exceptional seafood, careful preparation and respect for one of Spain's great culinary traditions.
