Wild Small Sardines with Sweet Piquillo Peppers

Matiz’s small sardines (or sardinillas) are the dainty darlings of the conserva world: petite, delicate, and bursting with natural sweetness. Paired with roasted Spanish piquillo peppers, they offer a perfect balance of savory, smoky, and slightly sweet notes that make for a luxurious bite.

Enjoy them as a simple tapa with crusty bread, serve them over polenta with a drizzle of balsamic, or add them to a bright citrus salad for a gourmet touch. These sardinillas are perfect for those who love the flavor of sardines but prefer a milder, more refined taste.
