Trending: The Tinned Fish Obsession
Tinned fish and seafood has always been a common snack staple in Spain and Portugal but it's now being rediscovered by the masses thanks to TikTok accounts and videos that are going viral. What many saw as "down market" proteins are elevated to gourmet levels. Caviar and other types of roe are the height of luxe but everything from oysters to mackerel are experiencing a Renaissance. And they're being served on not only fancy gourmet crackers but basic potato chips, seaweed, crudités and more.
We're currently obsessed with San Francisco-based Ali Hooke's "Tinned Fished Date Night" series where she and her husband try different assortments of oceanic proteins, various toppings, and serving vessels. It's an adventurous alternative to the same old charcuterie board.
