Matiz Small Sardines with Sweet Piquillo Peppers
$6.50
The sweet piquillo pepper is a mainstay of dishes made with Spanish seafood. Some people keep a jar of piquillo peppers on hand to go along with their sardines, and some people prefer to have the piquillo peppers delivered along with the sardines. We don’t judge.

These small sardines are great! They actually seem to be on the bigger end of small which I think is a really nice sweet spot. Speaking of sweet, the piquillo peppers add just a hint of sweetness that is very refreshing. It truly is faint. Not that it is advertised as such, but there is no heat to them whatsoever. Texturally they are firm and moist, with sizeable tails intact that melt in your mouth. It was fun to top each bite with some of the small pieces of pepper at the bottom of the can. I just wish there had been a little bit more of a presence from the pepper so as to keep the fish the star of the show, but still set it apart from its peers.
