Angulas in organic olive oil Rias Baixas 110 gr

As you probably know, the glass eel is the fry of the eel. Their adventure begins in the Sargasso Sea, in the middle of the Caribbean, where eels spawn and hatch their eggs, which for the next three years will move along the Gulf Stream until they reach European rivers. The eels gather in large masses at the mouths of the rivers and swim upstream until they become adults. And the most curious thing is that each elver arrives in the same river from which its progenitors emerged. When caught, each individual usually weighs 1g. and measures a little less than 8 cm.

It goes without saying that such a fragile and valuable fish is treated with the utmost care and delicacy in its transport to the factory, in its cooking process and in its canning. We present it following the traditional recipe for this delicacy, with a generous spicy touch provided by a natural chili pepper and bathed in organic extra virgin olive oil*.

In addition to its flavor, which for many experts is unmatched, elvers are a product of very high nutritional value. In fact, it is the most oily oily fish known and is endowed with a large dose of protein (16.3 g. per 100 g.). It also provides interesting amounts of some minerals such as phosphorus and potassium, favoring our renal health and nervous system. But the most notorious is its very high proportion of vitamin A, which has among its virtues the one of favoring our ocular and visual health.
