Octopus in olive oil, 111g gourmet

The most well-known Galician dish is arguably the octopus (pulpo). It is a staple at every folk festival and has gained worldwide recognition in recent years. It is sought after for its delicate flavor and high protein content. At Conservas de Cambados, we prepare it in olive oil and in a typical Galician sauce made with olive oil, sweet paprika, and salt. It is best enjoyed with boiled potatoes, but also works wonderfully in a salad with fresh vegetables.

Conservas de Cambados is located in Galicia in northwestern Spain. This is home to the Ría de Arousa, which is known not only for its size but also for its marine wealth.

Various types of shellfish are raised in floating nurseries, known as bateas, and are carefully harvested, selected, and preserved by Conservas de Cambados according to traditional recipes.
